Sometimes I run across things that impress me by how well laid out and organized they are. This list is woefully incomplete, but perhaps I'll remember this note exists from time to time and update it with new, recently discovered examples.
# [[Home Assistant]]'s "[Concepts and Terminology](https://www.home-assistant.io/getting-started/concepts-terminology/)" page
A perfect introduction to the [[Lexicon]] of HomeAssistant. Unlike most glossaries, **this page of definitions doesn't assume you know the context**. It's laid out not in alphabetical order, but in order of conceptual importance. Each time one term is used in the defining of another, they are linked. Moreover, each term gets its own heading and section. In each section a **visual** of the relevant part of the software is shown. In most sections, examples are given. And each section is *short*.

> [!tip] An excellent combination
> 1. Heading for each term
> 2. Don't assume context
> 3. Order by importance
> 4. Include visuals & examples
> 5. Say less
# The [Minecraft Wiki]([https://minecraft.wiki](https://minecraft.wiki/))
While [[Wikipedia]] is the undisputed king of wikis, I really like a [[Domain Specific Language|Domain Specific]] wiki.
When I recently played through Minecraft for the first time I trolled through the Minecraft Wiki and found it to be incredibly well put together. It uses **[MediaWiki](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki)**, which does a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of organization - but the Minecraft community have chosen a great set of standards & practices to include. The [[Infobox]]es are good & consistently used. Most pages & concepts have (& use) an icon or visual pulled straight from the game assets.
## [[Kafka]] Intro Video
Tim Berglund's < 10 minute intro video describing Kafka is very clear, engaging, and super well presented. He moves at **exactly** the right speed.
## [MDN's Overview of HTTP](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Guides/Overview)
Slightly wordy - but a great use of simple graphics.
## [Simple Science Fitness](https://ss.fitness)
This site has probably influenced my fitness more so than any other single resource I've found. I love that it's self-contained and consistent. It helps that the author is also [a designer](https://lapiakdesign.com) by trade.
### [exrx.net](https://exrx.net/Lists/Directory) Exercise Directory
Linked to by [[Simple Science Fitness]], the consistent page layouts and "right amount" of information, in its most helpful forms, on this website is great.
