The article states it is specifically geared towards FDM (i.e. filament) 3D printers.

I wonder if anybody with more experience knows how much of this would overlap with SLA (i.e. resin-style) 3D printers.

For example, there's rough guidelines like, overhangs are less of an issue with SLA - and the Z-height is ultimately what most affects print-time, but would be great to see something more in-depth here, with some engineering behind it.

Or if there's similarly in-depth articles for resin 3D printers?

It should be much the same except no layer lines or other aspects of squeezing stuff out through an extruder incrementally.
