I am trying to wrap my head around GoJS, and while the many examples are good, the api is hard for me to follow.

It's unfortunate no one has written a technical book or in-depth intro videos on GoJS. Maybe someone has?

Sometimes when I try to find how to do a particular task using the api, it takes really long, and I'm not sure I'm doing things the "right way". Why doesn't each item listed within the api point to an example of that api being used?

Instead of searching within the GoJS site, I'm finding it's better to do a google search. What if the GoJS site had search added to it? Consider the documentation for the Highcharts API or the AmCharts API (both js charting libraries) as examples.

I am working with AngularJS, but there is only one example using AngularJS. It would be nice if the big js frameworks had more integration examples.

If I want to "play" with a demo, I have to open another editor window on my machine to play with the examples download. It would be nice if the code examples were hosted in Plunker, because then it would much quicker and easier to start fiddling around with code examples, and if people have questions to post on the forum, having a common reference point might help.

This might be coming off as a rant, but I hope it can also be seen as constructive.
