I'm kind of got to be a Confluence Wiki Admin without prior notice and overall I would agree that they do a good job - but everything addon and macro related could get some clear and concise overhaul. I understand it's an ecosystem and there are lot's of clever and good ideas floating around but I'm never sure what can I use on my local confluence instance and what not... some documentation for newbie "idiot" developers is there.. and something for total professionals.. anything in between seems lacking. Luckily there is some stuff on bitbucket that you can analyse to get a grip on some ideas but it's neither intuitive nor easy.

TL;DR: Confluence besides their Cloud is kind of badly treated and documentation for modern and up to scratch immediate plugin development is mostly nonexistent.
