The core parts of perldoc are still, in my view, the sine qua non of good developer documentation. They’re almost exactly the right balance of normative specifications of the language and library and informative commentary on the use and implementation considerations. For example, consider perldoc perlmod: https://perldoc.perl.org/perlmod.html <https://perldoc.perl.org/perlmod.html> It’s something I aspire to when writing docs in any language. -o
