It’s not harder, though, it’s actually quite instant if you know what you’re doing. A lot of documentation is literally one single web page, and the majority that is not can be navigated with the regular search and ctrl+F just fine.
There’s no substitute to taking 40 minutes to get acquainted with the documentation to know what you need rather than trial & error your way through a problem blindly.
you could get an LLM to return you the correct page in some documentation
It’s unreliable and prone to errors, and I say that after using LLM-based searches for months at work. Too many times it confuses areas, makes stuff up, or cites some irrelevant page just to give any answer at all.










My brain decided to remind me of how I was mistreated earlier this week. Not cool, brain.
