As a Roblox Developer, it has become increasingly difficult to find new resources that are detailed enough to understand what the resource does and how it will help us.
I’ve encountered several times where the original poster has a good resource but the topic that explains the resource isn’t detailed enough to understand what it does and how to use it.
An example of the problem (click on the image):
The issue with the resource above is that:
- It doesn’t give a description of how the resource works.
- The features of the resource aren’t listed.
- The OP doesn’t explain how to use it
An example of a descriptive and detailed resource
The resource topic above is good because it:
- Describes what the resource is and what it does
- Gives an explanation on why we should use it
- Shows how to use the resource
- Displays examples of what it can do
- Gives a counterargument on why this would be useful compared to other methods
If Roblox were to address this issue, it would be:
- Less difficult to find a good resource that would be beneficial for me
- Less difficult to determine whether a resource fits my needs
Clarification:
This topic is not about the quality of the resources found in the resources category, but the quality of the topic of the resource that explains the resource itself.
A solution might be adding a resource wizard similar to the bug report wizard, except in a different format.
