Why is it so hard finding up-to-date docs and guides?

Because things keep changing and no one ever updates any docs or guides.

It would be nice to have a kind of central hub where all the lastest resources are listed.
I could be updated by the community.

Well... one can dream.

Someone should build a system that scrapes all open source repositories and uses an LLM to generate up to date documentation, and puts it in one big searchable place

If using docstrings/docblocks to generate SDK documentation, adding something like an OPA policy to validate their existence and semantic structure could help with coverage. Then we have the issue of accuracy, and that needs humans or AI to weigh in. I have a feeling test-driven development would make this process smoother.

You could also add git hooks to facilitate accountability / run the policies.
