Are you referring to the 250 pages of reference docs? I didn't see a 'Getting Started' or 'Examples' or 'Guide' or 'Tutorial' section, and I stand by my assessment of their attitude to newcomers.

I wish people would stop submitting those kinds of links to HN. Also: I have an axe to grind (about terrible unapproachable documentation, academic or corporate or hobbyist).
- nl 10y agoI wish people would stop submitting those kinds of links to HN. Why would you want that? Surely the point of HN is to read about things on the bleeding edge of what is possible. Sometimes that blood comes from being too ambitious and sometimes from missing docs. Either way, it seems a small price to pay.
