I hoped this might be like an externalization of g3doc. Nope.

Instead, I started reading through one of their highlighted examples --- the Go repo (https://codewiki.google/github.com/golang/go). This might be the worst high level overview of Go and its repo I've read. Mostly accurate but unhelpfully verbose, spending lots of words on trivia, and not at all making a compelling pitch for Go as a language or toolchain, how to use it, or how to work on it.

I was just looking through the Go example as well. For a first attempt its ok. I don't think its accurate to criticize that it doesn't make a case for using Go or teaching how to use it. It's attempting to be a more useful contributing.md. I think it does a decent job at that. Enough that you could find an area of interest and feel confident to start reading and understanding it yourself.

It just doesn't seem to be worth the effort though. I see myself using something like this for ~30 minutes to so I don't feel lost when getting started. After that it becomes significantly less useful.

Also, the video wasn't particularly helpful and if I have to here an AI voice say how fantastic something is again, Im going to unplug it (jk future overlords).

it is quite impressively bad

even the front diagram is completely contentless ("guides usage", "influences"?)

and you can't even link it
