@jacobjacobian had, I think, a really strong and positive influence on the docs culture there early on, and they're still the docs I compare other docs to (and other docs almost never hold up)

@b0rkJulia Evans We put a huge emphasis on docs from day 1. Our policy has always been that new code can’t be merged unless it includes docs — we’ve held up major features because the docs weren’t done/good. That’s a virtuous cycle: good docs attract contributors who value good docs. So yeah it’s super intentional, and always nice to hear from someone that it seems to be working :)
