    What's the point of having Array documentation


    It's simply cluttering up the docs. When did Sencha decide on documenting JavaScript along with Sencha frameworks?

    I'm not complaining that it's too much, just not "Sencha touch-specific" .

    I don't think it is a bad thing. I'm sure there are people coming to ST who have very little JavaScript knowledge.

    I see where you're coming from. I think historically, JavaScript documentation has not really made its way into Sencha products.

    Not to mention that browsing to it might confuse end-users initially because of the duplication. I might be an edge case, but when I view docs, I scroll directly to the methods. Jumping directly to Date breaks that flow. :-\ I now have to pay attention to the icon color and the position of "Date" in the doc tree.

    Perhaps they should be moved to a "JavaScript" subtree.

    Possibly, or into a guide. Docs are so important and we often overlook complete JS newbies. We have an incredibly exciting secret project coming up to address this better but I think there is value in having the native objects documented in the same place
