Let me just concur with Alex, As someone who reads documentation like literature when getting up to speed on a new project...
I'm not fond of alphabetizing API docs, I'd rather them to be done in related chunks, from most commonly used to least commonly used. I'm actually not sure I understand the value of alphabetizing them, given that if you know the name already you can search the page. -- Rebecca On June 24, 2014 at 5:50:07 AM, Mark Hahn ([email protected]) wrote: > similar methods are grouped together It should be totally alphabetic. You can take care of related methods by using links like "See Unlink".

I usually have to scroll through most of the list to find anything. Why not list them alphabetically? Your comment has been out of date for a while now. Check again. The module methods and events aren't alphabetical, just the main module index. I'm not sure there is any specific order to the module methods/events currently except in a few cases where similar methods are grouped together (e.g. ref() and unref(), and multiple method signatures for the same method name -- such as net.connect()). -- Job board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ New group rules: https://gist.github.com/othiym23/9886289#file-moderation-policy-md Old group rules: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines --- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
