I'm not a active user of SO / SE so I can't comment on that, but I think it is fine to ask questions like this one using the issue tracker.

Also, thanks for reaching out about the examples. I agree we should have descriptions on what each of them is trying to achieve, and we should also think about linking to the relevant section in the narrative documentation.

I like the the package quite a bit, but sometimes I struggle to answer basic questions like this from the documentation alone (ex: [this page ](http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/generated/xarray.where.html)could maybe use a few words explaining the examples?).

```python
