I'm not as fond of the redesign that took place sometime in the last decade or so, but I remember the old (circa 2000) Win32 docs as good examples of great documentation.

For the worst ever in all of human history, I submit the official Unreal Engine docs. They never finished them, and they ain't gonna. If it didn't come with full source I'd never get anything done because I'm not about to sit through 100 hours of YouTube videos to find the details I need.

A lot of software relies on user-created documentation these days. And it's not even a decent wiki anymore. It's more likely to be YouTube and a Discord. Damn kids.
