Thank you for making this!

My rubric for documentation is "how many clicks to code". I found the installation instructions, and started to look for usage, but didn't find it. Too many clicks. That's where I'd start.

PS - IMO the gold standard for this evaluation method is Sinatra.rb, which is zero clicks to code.

Are you referring to this [1]? I had to click Documentation to get here and still didn’t see any code...
