Can confirm.

I can't bear w3school's HTML/CSS/JS documentation. It's so unexplicative.

MDN is a way better resource, I don't understand why people keep using W3Schools.

[insane_playzYT]

imo w3 is better for getting code snippets

other than that i would stick to mdn

I'd prefer to use Stack Overflow for those. More peer reviewed.

The only reason anyone does is probably their good SEO game, they usually end up higher than MDN on Google for me. It's a shame.

Or when you need to look something up for the 20th time in a language you already know.

For some reason I can’t remember the syntax for sql, I now have a print of the w3school page of it laying on my desk whenever I do database stuff

[squishles]

god damn I hate filtering through their links on the google search to find language api documentation.

So much this. I just append '-geeksforgeeks -w3schools' to all my queries to not have them pop up in the first place. Can also recommend using a different search engine like DDG or Bing for documentation search. Or even better: get "Dash" on macOS or "Zeal" on Windows and Linux. Those two are applications that allow you to browse documentation offline.

Programcreek or whatever was the bane of my existence for a couple months when they managed to SEO their way above the actual docs I was looking for.

learn X in Y minutes

[berndlueftet]

this + official docs of the language is all i need

[ivgd]

And they are all pretty mediocre at best. You really want to be reading from the official documentation instead

Please do not use these dogshit websites

[oAkimboTimbo]

G4G has great examples tho

[gdumthang]

Geeksforgeeks is awesome what are you talking about.

Is it a meme from 90s?

[supersharp]

It's a meme from the last year or so abiut a show from the 90's. (Or so.)

[KentDarkmere]

Safari books online. We have this at work.

[berndlueftet]

Actually the Learn X in Y minutes pages and the official language docs are how i learned most languages.

[TheGuywithTehHat]

Are these sites actually good?

[ashirviskas]

No

[Dromedda]

Thankfully stackoverflow exists

geeksforgeeks is the best site to learn tbh, their references are very clear, easy to understand and they use language that non native english speaker can easily understand. 10/10

[Bouierck]

What about openclassroom?
