I've seen developers remark how turned off they got by reading stuff like this on its front page, which is frankly just noise and undermines the goals of a serious project: > re-frame is lucky enough to enjoy an unfair advantage...When we use Lisp, we get to leverage 50 years of foliated excellence from the very best minds available. I mean, come on. The very best minds work in many different fields with many different languages. Lisp doesn't own the best minds, and neither does re-frame. The fact that lisp or Fortran or other languages have been around for many decades is kinda irrelevant, and this writing style permeates all the docs. > Travel the geodesic. > an immaculate hammock conception The heart of the how-tos is often hidden in lengthy prose that celebrates itself. |
In this thread, I was responding to someone saying the concepts were simple but explained with too many buzzwords. I certainly have no recollection of someone of someone saying that before.
On the other hand, I have heard some say they'd want more code examples earlier. And, just as soon as I get time I'll be doing that. Unless you want to supply a PR yourself - given your posting frequency you seem very, very invested.
