I almost always prefer written, but there are some times where a video makes more sense, I think.
When the thing you're teaching is just a list of easily defined steps, written makes more sense to me. Example: "How to install the latest version of node.js" or "How to proper do error handling in Go"
When the think you're teaching is a process with no defined steps, then a video can make more sense. Example: "How to do Test-Driven Development" or "How to conduct a brainstorming session with your team"
Yeah you're right, the less defined the steps (and actually the more debugging someone might need to do as they're following along), the more helpful a video could be.
