What do you miss about it? Can you not find what you're looking for?

It's pseudo code. The real code is TypeScript React and looks very different and it wouldn't serve the article to take snippets from that code to explain how it works.

Getting accessibility right is hard. We very much care about that. One of the strong reasons for why we're using Downshift.

MDN has 2 search things: 1. client-side only which downloads a complete list of all titles. 2. full-text search on everything with Elasticsearch.

Relevancy is the huge game-changer. MDN uses pageviews analytics to determine was a "popular" age is.

(author here) We're still on FlexSearch 0.6 and the new 0.7 is a big refactor. I hope we can upgrade some time.

Can you scroll to the bottom of that page and use the "Report a problem with this content on GitHub" link? The raw content is not Markdown. It's HTML with some macros (called kumascript macros). And yes, you can "host MD

It's not that easy. We have 60+k pages carried over from 15 years of organic evolution. It's unstructured and messy. A move away from HTML to something "more popular syntax" (like Markdown) is NOT easy.

MDN is powered by a mix of people paid (by Mozilla, Google, Samsung, Microsoft) and contributors who volunteer their time.

Why would it be for the worse?

Sorry(?) But it's still just MDN (or MDN Web Docs). Yari is just the code name for the code repo. Not a particularly important name.

This is just the beginning. Finally we can do the kind of web performance improvements we couldn't do on the old platform. But to boot, we gained 10-20% on the First Render metrics. And because of the whole new way we deploy, we went

PostgresSQL is better. We're all aware of that. But it's miniscule in importance. Especially if you use the ORMs and other decent tooling. The move to git isn't MySQL's fault. It's so more and bigger than that.

What's cool about git as a persistent storage, is that you can use vscode, emacs, vim, or notepad. Or you can write a little web app that starts a WYSIWYG editor on localhost:8888 or Heroku and have it dump to the file system and then
