Erlang Inside Rotating Header Image

erldocs.com updated with R14A support, mochiweb, and available for your own projects

Dale Harvey just recently updated erldocs.com with R14A support. If you are doing any erlang development, or even looking to just learn a bit about erlang, I highly recommend using erldocs over the official documentation. The ease of use just makes looking up a module, function, or argument so much easier. And the search is real-time so you can basically use it as a discovery tool. For instance, did you know Erlang has an IDL compiler? or a tftp server? What’s your favorite heretofore unknown Erlang standard library ‘gem’?

Additionally, http://github.com/daleharvey/erldocs.com has instructions for how to use with your own libraries and now includes support for mochiweb…

    Hey, cheers for the post :)

    one quick thing, I completely screwed up the old repo beyond repair (committed a mass of stuff in the history that made the repo too large) so I started again from scratch, the new link is http://github.com/daleharvey/erldocs

    as for my favourite hidden erlang module, http://erldocs.com/R14A/et/et.html?i=0&search=phone#phone_home/4 made me laugh, especially the function description.
