I mean, this looks interesting, but why was this posted prematurely? Now I have to remember to look this up again in two months when they actually have a website that isn't 3% done. Basically all of the docs are in the "todo" stage. I always get a bit annoyed when people post their pages way too early.

In this case, publicising, and getting more contributors can help fix these problems.


What makes you think that the HN poster has any affiliation with the project, or vice versa?


Yeah, knowing one of the developers personally, they actually didn't post this. Someone else posted this to Twitter/Reddit/HN.


I believe he person you're responding to means posting the public web page, not the submission here.


Maybe they prefer to focus on writing actual language than PR’ish stuff? It’s quite refreshing after seeing too much of the opposite (especially in blockchain space where you have in 99% of cases just pretty PR page and zero product/code).

I’m sure they’re open and would be happy to see contributions.

Translating source code into docs is a great way to learn and it looks like very pleasant language to read.


Documentation can hardly be called "PR'ish stuff". It is also (ideally) far from some kind of "translation" of code into natural language.
