Agreed, to a point. I think that API docs should be like this: nested. We really just need additional higher-level docs and improved tutorials that will give users an idea of how to get started, and then they can use the API docs more as a reference, rather than as the only way to figure out how to get things done :) > Just a suggestion though: I think there's a slight overreliance on > referring to other technology, like "model objects following the > Active Record design pattern, and using a DSL syntax".

Please move this discussion to the elixir mailing list, if you don't mind, as it doesn't really have anything to do with TurboGears :) Thanks! -- Jonathan LaCour http://cleverdevil.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
