digitalmars.D - UDA are not covered in documentation and tour

For the past few days I have been eager to understand more about 
UDA and the only useful links I found are an old discussion about 
implementation by Walter and this:
http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/uda.html
by Ali Çehreli that definitely does the work of explaining it all.

I think we should add a section to the documentation. Is it 
overkill to include them in the Tour?

Or am I wrong and UDA are already covered somewhere in this site?

They are mentioned in the spec and the tour: https://dlang.org/spec/attribute.html#uda https://tour.dlang.org/tour/en/gems/attributes

Feel free to submit pull requests to add more info to either of those locations: https://github.com/dlang/dlang.org https://github.com/dlang-tour/english
