Worth to mention that there is also alternative aproach when all apis are available together.

Awesome idea to use different tooling.
We could generate documentation on release (by tooling) and use state of the art solutions for each platform.Each platform is different and there are different tools available so keeping the format may be hard.
There are plenty of projects that give us this out of the box. Just couple examples:
http://typedoc.org/ (TypeScript - cordova)
Another really good idea mentioned above is to avoid extensive code examples in documentation by referencing api docs.We have done that in RainCatcher and it worked really good
http://raincatcher.feedhenry.io/docs/#_logging (see logger api documentation)
This will help us to avoid our documentation getting out of sync with the actual code.We could host that on github pages for community.I think that it will be hard to get into details on mailing list so we could create proposal for API docs.--

--Hi,
There is existing tooling to generate API reference doc for Android and iOS. I'm thinking we should use that to generate comprehensive API doc for both platforms (and later for Cordova).
I believe this gives the best experience to the <platform> developer, on the basis that, at any one time, they developer is working on a single platform (and typically a colleague is developing the 'other' platform). The disadvantages of this approach include the fact that the appearance of generic docs/android/ios will all be different, but we can put enough navigation into the html to allow users enter and exit this reference without too much pain.
However there is also a requirement to show the cross platform nature of mobile-next, to demonstrate the generic nature of a particular call. I'd like to address this, not in the 'full' API docs, but in examples of typical use cases which might look like
getSyncClient().list("tasks");For more information see <link to android ref docs>
syncClient.listWithDataId("tasFor more information see <link to ios ref docs>ks" )
WDYT?
