Patents should be written first: claims or specifications.

Whether to write the claim or the instruction first depends on everyone's habits. Generally speaking, it is customary to write claims first, with a skeleton, and then write instructions around the skeleton to enrich the content. Others like to write explanations first and then summarize their opinions. Anything will do. Claim is the most critical and difficult part. The application documents for a patent for invention or utility model can also be arranged in the following order: request, abstract of specification, appended drawings of abstract, patent claim, specification, appended drawings of specification and other documents. The specification, like the patent claim, is an indispensable part of the patent document. In many cases, the importance of the specification is even more critical than the patent claim.
