MDN Web Docs is the open-source, community-maintained documentation project for web technologies, containing over 14,000 pages of reference and learning content on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, HTTP, and Web APIs. The mdn/content repository holds the Markdown source of the documentation, rendered by the yari platform at developer.mozilla.org.

Use cases

  • look up HTML element and attribute references
  • learn web development from beginner tutorials
  • check browser compatibility data for web APIs
  • find CSS and JavaScript code examples
  • contribute to or translate web documentation
  • run MDN docs locally for offline reading

When to choose

  • you need authoritative reference material for web platform technologies
  • you are a beginner looking for structured web development tutorials
  • you want to contribute to or localize web documentation
  • you need browser compatibility information for features

When to avoid

  • you need documentation for non-web technologies like Python or Rust
  • you want a runnable software tool rather than documentation content
  • you need guaranteed up-to-the-minute coverage of brand-new experimental APIs
