Not to be rude to a mod, and I am obviously biased for this post but...

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

"Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think something is spam or offtopic, flag it by going to its page and clicking on the "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did."

It's true that moderation comments break the guidelines by being off-topic locally, but they help the site conform better to the guidelines globally.

I post those links so readers know why a story is being treated as a dupe, and so submitters see examples of how to search for this before posting.

This case is particularly clear: the project (which I don't doubt is excellent work, by the way) has had major attention twice recently, including as late as last week. Normally we look for just one major post in the last year. Please see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.

Thanks for the followup dang. Appreciate the thoughtful answer.

Didn't notice it last week and the docs are a big deal, so up it went.

Somehow I'll resist the temptation to submit a new one linked directly to the docs! :-D

The github URL was at the top of Hacker News on Friday. Do we really want to see the same framework at the top two weeks in a row?

Getting our doc site live is a huge milestone for us. Maybe not necessarily front-page worthy, but I didn't submit it :) Our biggest feedback last time the github repo was posted was a lack of guides. I hope newcomers find these helpful. Our guides and howtos are still a WIP, but there's lots of good info already on getting up to speed.

Major complaint was about lack of documentation. Here it is :)

Alright, fair enough. This is different because it's the actual documentation.

Also, I just realized that this page wasn't here yesterday. Congrats on releasing!
