The API documentation hasn't changed much since I threw it together with the original module. Clearer documentation has always been a source of irritation for users.

One quick question: reworking the API documentation does it imply, changing it in the API section/ adding code examples in the README section?

@balajipachai yes. Right now it's too condensed and kind of hard to read unless you know it well. The readme itself isn't broken out well.

An example of something I'm looking for is something like: https://github.com/RobinBuschmann/sequelize-typescript

Another thing that could be done is to host the example docs on something like github.io or gitbook (premium is free for open-source projects) and then get a domain from js.org. Both cron.js.org and node-cron.js.org are available.

Don't know if it's something you want to do for this project, but it's an idea. 🤷‍♂️

some good project READMEs to use as inspiration:
