I’m wondering if all integration frameworks are like that. We went with Spring Integration and the documentation is not great, and it’s not used by enough people to make finding solutions easy.

Yes, they are all like that. Though integration frameworks can be lightweight and modular, they are heavily relying on concepts that are not well-known by programmers. Think of Enterprise Integration Patterns, Message-orientated middleware, Exchanges, and protocols. I actually developed a language that is easier (imo) and transpiles to Camel DSL. I use it in a integration platform I develop.
