A really good way to evaluate an ecosystem is looking if people look into documentation or stack overflow first.

When it's stack overflow, the ecosystem always suck.

Agreed, I 100% prefer to parse through documentation than stack overflow

I prefer good documentation over stack overflow, but I prefer stack overflow over bad documentation. If other programmers are mostly using stack overflow, it means the documentation sucks
