Spontaneous feedback on documentation

From @lissyx

is this the right channel if i need to work around remote settings (adding new things that relies on it) ?

#delivery vs. #remote-settings :/

Firefox source docs

https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/services/settings/index.html#usage =>

Uncaught Error: ChromeUtils.import is called against an ES module script (resource://services-settings/remote-settings.sys.mjs). Please use ChromeUtils.importESModule instead (SyntaxError: import declarations may only appear at top level of a module)

• Lack of clarity on when to use .get() vs. on("sync", ...)

is there a better API entry point documentation than https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/services/settings/index.html#usage ? it's a bit hard to grasp a high-level view of the API surface to interact

read the docs

some info is spread like https://remote-settings.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started.html should probably be a starting point, but it's burried inside firefox-source-docs

ok so the extension has a "local" setting, but i cannot find anything explaining how to run a local server

"dev" and "dev (preview)" in the extension, i dont see that mentionned anywhere?

this is outdated? https://remote-settings.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial-dev-server.html#prepare-the-client the issue linked is closed now

Screencasts

Videos don't show the new UI

the button appeared? can't tell if it's because of a delay or just i force-reloaded the page
