> I found out the hard way that Elixir and Phoenix docs aren't as prolific Odd, because I have found the opposite to be true about the docs. I've found the docs proper to be quite prolific, well maintained and well-written with examples. This stems from docs being first-class citizens of the language, a dead-simple docs generation tool, and their dogged commitment on excellent documentation (which is why docs are first-class citizens to begin with). > That and the names are less Googleable. That said, the _SO/Google_ aspect (not docs) is _significantly_ less prolific - I totally agree with that. But I've found where with other languages I often find myself on SO (C# and JS mainly), I haven't even needed it because the docs are just so well maintained (and versioned). This, plus their community is _extremely_ active, on the elixir forum and github (also slack, but I use that less). So now, when I google for elixir info, I'm basically googling to get to the official documentation quickly. If there is any question I have beyond that, I check the elixir forum, rarely (but sometimes) needing to post a new question. Perhaps I've just had a different experience wrt this.
