User perspective:
If you want something big I'd pitch nixos. As in the core distribution. It's a documentation nightmare and as a user I had to go over options search and then trying to figure out what they mean more often than I found a comprehensive documentation.
That would be half writing and half coordinating writers though I suspect.
Another great project with mixed quality documentation is openhab. It fits the bill of more backend heavy side and the devs are very open in my experience. I see it actually as superior in its core concepts to the way more popular home assistant in every aspect except documentation!
That said: thanks for putting the effort in! ♥
Thank you. I'll look into NixOS as we need Linux documentation to welcome more users from Windows.
If that's your intend than it might be better to pick individual arch wiki pages or improve the entry documentation. Many people refer to there from all distro because of its volume.
A "how to read tech documentation" could add value for this target group.
