## Usage

```shell
npm i are-docs-informative
```

```ts
import { areDocsInformative } from "are-docs-informative";

areDocsInformative("The user id.", "userId"); // false
areDocsInformative("Retrieved user id.", "userId"); // true
```

### Options

The `areDocsInformative` function can receive a third, optional parameter

#### `aliases`

The `aliases` option allows indicating words as synonyms (aliases) of each other.

For example, with `{ aliases: { emoji: ["smiley", "winkey"] } }`, the following comment would be considered uninformative:

```js
/** Default smiley/winkey. */
export const defaultSmiley = "🙂";
```

The default `aliases` option is:

```json
{
	"a": ["an", "our"]
}
```

#### `uselessWords`

Words that are ignored when searching for one that adds meaning.

For example, with `{ uselessWords: ["our"] }`, the following comment would be considered uninformative:

```js
/** Our text. */
export const text = ":)";
```

The default `uselessWords` option is:

```json
["a", "an", "i", "in", "of", "s", "the"]
```
