Subject:Looking for "best of breed" developer/API docs From:"Eric J. Ray" <ejray -at- raycomm -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 10 Apr 2001 05:09:40 -0600
Gang,
I'd appreciate any pointers you have to "best of breed"
developer or API documentation. If you have time to offer
commentary on what makes it so good, that's all the better.
In general, I'm looking for the kind of stuff that
the programmer/developer _users_ of the documents think
is terrific; I'm substantially less interested in API
docs that have won STC awards or other prizes, unless
they come with rave reviews from programmers as well.
What's best of breed? Good question, but in brief it'd
refer to any developer or API docs that the users
rave over, compare other docs to, or otherwise clearly
appreciate...
