• I created a game engine using TypeScript. Please roast it.

  I was thinking of using something like https://typedoc.org to do it, do you have experience with this sort of tools? Source: about 1 year ago

• How to properly document components

  JSDoc is a terrible standard. I would rather go for TypeScript + TSDoc, then use TypDoc to generate the actual documentation based on TS typings. Alternatively, you can go for Vue Styleguidist.

• Adding a search feature to my app

  Working with new features, frameworks, and tools, the experience of reading documentation is a critical part of it. I have been lucky to work with projects that feature really easy to read documentation such as USWDS and Bun, but I've also had the misfortune to work with pretty terrible documentation like JSDoc.
