See and post notes on developer documentation.

Developer Notes is a Chrome extension designed to enrich your developer documentation experience across major platforms like Unity, Unreal Engine, and Wwise. It aggregates hundreds of user-contributed notes curated for accuracy, including usage tips, relevant examples, references, and common pitfalls to avoid.

Supporting a variety of documentation sources—including the Unity Manual, Scripting Reference, Package and Multiplayer Documentation, Unreal Engine and Python API docs, as well as Wwise documentation—this extension seamlessly integrates notes into your workflow. Using Giscus, it connects comments to GitHub discussions for collaborative community insight. Please note this is an unofficial extension, independent of Unity Technologies, Epic Games, and Audiokinetic.

A real game-changer ! Before that, you add only very little hope to find any useful information about your issue when you opened the Unity documentation :).
