Ok but then you get README files that are useless on their own, containing basically only a brief descriptions and several links to github pages / docs website. What good does it make to be able to read that on your terminal?
- prepend 6y agoI don’t think thats required and based on viewing probably dozens of readmes a week that’s pretty rare. It varies a lot by project but I find readmes pretty useful even if they do point to a readthedocs site for more info. I think it’s unusual to have a readme with as much info as a man page, but readme is for the source right. The documentation is usually organized depending on the type of project.
