One of the people who presented DocC used to lead both the rustdoc and docs.rs teams. You can see Ferris, the Rust mascot, on their desk.
I think quality documentation can be written within the markdown that explains how higher levels concepts work. I see this in Rust all the time.
- cratermoon 5y agoOff topic: I didn't know the Rust mascot was named Ferris. That's a lovely play on words.
