Hey!
I not good at understanding a project from its code. So, I try as much as I can to understand it from its technical documentation first. But so many time I fell overwhelm by the information: I don’t know were to start to read and I don’t know how to find a specific information.
How can I know when I’m lacking in understanding the project and when the project is lacking good documentation?
Where should I start while studying a documentation which readme doesn’t say “read this next”?
Thank you
What are you trying to understand and what type of project are you looking at? Are you looking to run a program or use a library?
Good documentation to me is here’s how to get this installed, here’s a basic overview of getting started, here’s all the methods/functions with their arguments and a description, and optionally some very basic examples programs to sanity check everything is working ok.
