Description

hackbot

We should drop implementation details and keep high-level concepts and things that are not easy to grasp quickly. This includes making it more concise.

Ideally, improvements should not make the docs outdated frequently; that is a sign that we are documenting too many implementation details or documenting something that is not mature yet.
