docs for onchain tools require devs to have funded accounts & node to actually feel the tools value

I built this foundry guide with a funded account, node, and foundry. It teaches you to deploy contracts using Foundry CLI tools without leaving the docs, experiencing its full benefits firsthand.

Great docs are hard to build

What are some of your favorite dev docs? And how would you improve them further

EAS docs are high quality. I specially liked the tutorial they had with different paths to making an attestation

https://docs.attest.org

I think the core principles of good dev docs are having these different modes:

Type 1

Tutorial: “Get me from 0 to 1 on the common happy path use case of this product”

Type 2

Guide with core path and lots of jump off points for further reading, along with code snippets: “Here are some next level concepts to go deeper and handle more advanced use cases”

Type 3

Encyclopedia: “here’s everything categorised, browse through what you need”
