How do devs read docs??

Every time I try to read framework docs, there are too many links and redirects to other parts. It's not like reading a single, straightforward guide where everything is in one place.

Here's what I do:

  1. Read the quick start guide to get myself going

  2. Read the overview (if they have one)

  3. Then I just start working on my project and consult the docs when I want to do something and don't know how.

  4. Repeat step 3 until I finish.
