The re-frame docs and "marketing" speak, like on its front github page, would do very well to remove a lot of the self-congratulatory tone, frankly. A lot of it reads like someone very impressed with themselves rather than text about how to use an actual tool.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

I really like the re-frame docs, thank you very much for putting so much effort into them. They've helped me grow as a programmer. For context, I first stumbled across the readme in ~2015-16 in college before working professionally. As someone looking to learn I enjoyed the didactic bent, I felt like I got the big picture. It tied together a lot of Clojure kool-aid.

The vibe I get from the tone of the docs isn't really juvenile or self-congratulatory. The humor is mature, references made show that material therein have been considered. It's not memes and emojis and WOW! It's somewhat unprofessional, has a few in-jokes, but I like those signals. If the docs haven't succumbed to design-by-committee lowest-common-denominator then neither has the code. It gives me the feeling that someone took the slow road, thought about a lot of things, came out with something simple, and is likely to work hard to preserve that simplicity.

The docs tell me that re-frame is focused on the craft. That means a lot more to me than sprinting to see how do I do x in y quickly.

Please don’t listen to the peanut gallery. The re-frame docs are in a league of their own and most of us appreciate the enormous effort put in to make them awesome. Keep rocking.

Oh Man, it is certainly nice to hear something positive. Thanks!

The docs are great and re-frame is a pleasure to work with. It make take some time to read through the docs but it is a worthwhile endeavor as the concepts build upon each other. They reward those willing to take the time. When I was a newcomer to re-frame and cljs I did not find the re-frame docs to be pretentious or off putting in any way. If not for re-frame and the re-frame docs I'm not certain I would have continued to use Clojure or cljs. Thank you for building this excellent tool and providing high quality documentation to back it.

the re-frame docs are great, never change

I appreaciate you saying that, thanks.
