I don't know about that. I've read some terrible documentation that had everything under the sun. Right now in the library I'm using, the documentation has every available class, every single method, what it's purpose.
But how to actually use the damn thing? I have to look up blog posts and videos. I actually found someone's website that had notes about various features that are better than the docs.
There's a delicate balance of signal vs noise.
yeah, it also helps knowing how to use the thing, but i consider that to be "basic documentation" personally.
Knowing how to set something up is nice, but knowing how to use it properly after setting it up is even nicer.
