It's like 2000's MSDN vs current MSDN. The erlang documentation tells you what you need to know and is accurate but it isn't helpful in the way it should be.

It's like 2000's MSDN vs current MSDN.
The erlang documentation tells you what you need to know and is accurate but it isn't helpful in the way it should be.
If you already know what you're doing, it can be a useful reference, but it doesn't aid understanding.

Beginners and intermediates, on the other hand, need it to be something more like a textbook: something that contain not just the technical details, but also commentary and examples about them that tie them to "real life" scenarios.
