High level documentation? #443

Open asarkar opened 2 years ago

asarkar commented 2 years ago

README refers to hackage, hackage refers to itself, eventually, there's no usage instructions or tutorials for one to get started.

Vector does lack high level documentation. And unless someone steps up and write it it's going to stay this way. So I mark this issue as help-wanted

Hi, I'd like to help out here :) just one question: what would you like the README to cover? I was thinking of some introduction, code examples/usage instructions, differentiation between vector and array.

Please note that this tutorial on Haskell Wiki is currently linked on Hackage, but maybe we could also consider linking this one? I think it's less overwhelming and more concise. It might be a bit pointless to write another tutorial just for the sake of it if there are some good and easy-to-follow tutorials already out there.
