I enjoyed the expedient writing style. The author did a great job of expressing the essential knowledge without too much verbosity. It's very clear what the skeleton of the project consists of, and the known unknowns are labeled (i.e. "this is how this works, you can read more later [here]").
Some may find this directness unempathetic, but I consider it as the opposite: the writing seems precisely aware of exactly what the reader wants to know at any given time and what questions he or she would be likely to have on their mind.
- afandian 9y agoCurious about which bit someone might find unempathetic? It all seems pretty straightforward to me.
- theprotocol 9y agoI just meant it subjectively. I assume some might not like this expedient style as a matter of taste, because most publications/articles/tutorials are not written so concisely.
