Honestly, I'd rather have a well commented example application that utilizes the framework with decent API documentation. So a little bit of both. The APIs are hopefully written well enough that things are fairly self documenting.
Maybe a couple of different example applications to serve different goals would be helpful as well instead of one monolithic project.
I've just never really been big on blog posts that are showing me code and why things are there, when that can all be done within the project itself and I can run it, maybe setup breakpoints and hack around. I can get up and running faster that way, and I hate high barriers to entry when I'm looking to play around with something.
