Honestly, this isn't the case - at least in my experience - every product I've bought from them has come with a pinout diagram that is also duplicated on github. Sure, getting the hardware up and running is challenging, and sometimes the examples are a bit arcane or have weird omissions in terms of illustrating the device's capabilities, but it's a booster pack compared to designing and programming similar embedded hardware from scratch.

Honestly, it is -- I've a handful of devices and at least 2 needed debug level recovery of the firmware because of board revisions and pinouts for the same product being vastly different.

They should do better, but they're in a fun corner of the industry pushing out a half decent solution, so I accept.
