## What it is
simpl.info is a collection of the simplest possible examples of HTML, CSS and JavaScript, covering dozens of browser APIs and web platform features. It is a learning resource website whose source is hosted on GitHub and licensed under Apache-2.0.

## Use cases
- learn how a browser API works with minimal code
- find a minimal example of getUserMedia or WebRTC
- see a simple CSS Grid or Flexbox layout example
- understand ES6 modules, fetch, or promises with tiny demos
- copy a minimal IndexedDB or localStorage snippet
- reference examples of media APIs like MediaRecorder and MSE

## When to choose
- you want minimal, dependency-free examples of web platform features
- you are teaching or learning HTML, CSS, or JavaScript APIs
- you need a quick reference for how a browser API is used

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready framework or library
- you want comprehensive tutorials or courses rather than snippets
- you need examples for server-side or non-browser JavaScript

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools, documentation
- domain: web-development, frontend, tutorials, education
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: code-examples, html, css, javascript, web-apis, reference, simpl-info, web-server
