I have to say I 100% agree about the documentation.

Having used both GCP and AWS, although the core GCP offerings are fantastic and far superior to AWS, the GCP documentation is a disaster.

It’s totally inexcusable, and really disappointing because it has a huge effect on the perception of the platform among folks that are AWS users and take a quick look at GCP.

I can’t see any reason why the documentation issue shouldn’t be solvable in 3 months with enough money. Take a wheelbarrow down to the bank, fill it up, and put out an open offer to everyone on the AWS documentation and developer relations teams to double their salary and stock.

The core of GCP is so great, that it’s such a shame the final polish seems to be impossible to accomplish.
