Which is why I think that Bill Bumgarner was totally wrong last year: Wonder *is* exactly for beginners. You may have problems, or you may not understand 5% or it. But it contains 99% of what you will build for yourself if left on your own, only that it works.
That may very well be. But you can't have it both ways - either it's for beginners, and therefore needs documenting, or it's for gurus and doesn't. It's all very well to talk about how easy and obvious it should be to use, but the reality is obviously different for many of us mere mortals, considering how often I've seen people be totally mystified about how to even start using it. Maybe it's true that once people start to use it they figure it out right away, but the lack of documentation will keep many people from ever getting started.
Maybe a class by class document isn't necessary, but a strong overview of what it does, and detailed instructions on how to get started using it, are key if you really want this to be useful for beginners.
