Positive Examples:

Negative Examples:

  • MongoDB - ...where do I even start? Literally. Where?
  • Mongoose - they eventually make sense, but only once you're already are familiar with how mongoose works...
  • Bootstrap v3 - This is contentious, but even after years of using Bootstrap, I always have difficulty finding stuff in the docs. I can never remember what's in the "CSS" vs "Components" vs "JavaScript" tabs and the navigation sidebar is painful to use

Edit: Bootstrap v4's documentation fixes most of the problems in v3's.
