You can see the number of imports and import graph on godoc. I don't see that on crates.io. You can also see if it's a fork on github. What is on crates.io link that is missing on Godoc? More colours? The package author chooses how much documentation is necessary for a given package. Given that html/js is a mess I expect more documentation to figure out how it works. Here is the godoc of a package with more text if that's what you are looking for http://godoc.org/google.golang.org/appengine/datastore http://godoc.org/google.golang.org/appengine/datastore On top of this the documentation is source code so you don't need a bunch of other fils to keep the documentation in sync.
