Why is it always assumed the reader knows the function of 15 obscure libraries and/or frameworks when posting projects like this?

I don't know most of these tools either, but that is why I find posts like this useful. Don't you end up learning something new in cases like this?

I can relate to this feeling, having encountered it many times in academia. But the inverse would also be true, would you stop reading yet another article that explains for the umpteenth time what library Y does? Not arguing for the author, but there’s certainly something about knowing and writing for your audience.
