My 2c of insight: I found Svelte's docs & examples greatly sweetened the on-boarding.
While I presume writing specs is a boring collateral, a friendly / bitesized / WISYWYG documentation would make a world of difference for the enthusiastic but less-than-ninjas of us.
The smarter kids can catch up faster, and some might not bother, already do react/vue. I personally found with Svelte a way tamer learning curve.

I agree. I would love to do more. The truth is there is just so much to do. It's hard to find a balance between writing cleaner docs and say solving Async Hydration with Suspended Components. I had the luxury early on to prioritize the latter which is why Solid is so feature rich given how much of it needed to be researched and built from scratch. I always knew it would catch up with me. But that's a good problem to have.

Clear Docs is important because they say we spend 1x developing a product and 10x marketing it. In the developer experience world, docs are marketing.
Also, polished product and polished code deserve a polished set of docs. Just sayin'!

Ahahaha I know it sounds like that. But I realize what a massive task that would be. Am I volunteering? No. I appreciate your invite.. I'll email you if I change my mind.
I think a cool thing would be if the docs site was made in it. Self documenting.
