Javacafe01 - evidently he has archived his repo, guess NixOS is getting to him. He is also the primary developer behind Bling which also implements Rubato, but in such a way as to take esoteric to new heights if you aren't used to making sense of the big foot scat that is awesomewm configurations.

What awesome wm "thing" do you think needs "noob friendly" documentation the most?
I would also recommend read through other ppls configurations on GitHub like Manilarome, JavaCafe or even mine which I think are pretty decent
- Is this awesome config version 4 or is it a lower version?

Not all .desktop files are being put in the "main menu"
Default awesome config doesn't parse .desktop files at all. Some deb based distributions modified it to use awesome-freedesktop but it's surely not an only way to get the application menu (there are stand alone apps like rofi). So first of all you should mention which way to create the menu are you using.
- best menu for awesome ?
- jgmenu in awesomewm

Where all the menu entries?
Freedesktop.org compliant menu and desktop icons - older style, but dynamic. Not bad, but not for me. https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-freedesktop
