Somebody brought up a point about outdated documentation.

Currently https://clojuredocs.org is sort of the go to place. It wins due to Google algorithm.

I wanted to add the ability to vote on answers provided there. So that you have the ability to see the most relevant/popular answer, rather than the oldest.

Raised an issue on the repo, four years ago now. No response:

https://github.com/zk/clojuredocs/issues/222

And why do I mention Google algorithm? Because there was another effort that tried to create a (debatably) nicer documentation, but due to lack of Google traffic, it died. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8027119

For a more eloquent argument on its uses, see this blog post:
