w3schools is good.
- throwawayffffas 5y agoMDN is usually a much better resource.
- toshk 5y agoMDN is much more complicated. I almost always get my answer faster and easier to understand with w3schools. Plus quick little things like browser support and try it (which mdn also has now)
- naoqj 5y agoMDN is generally too technical.
- Rilfeu 5y agoAs it should be. It's a resource for professional developers, not people who are learning how to code for the first time.
- ad404b8a372f2b9 5y agoProfessional developers enjoy simple and concise explanations just as much as people who are coding for the first time.
- shp0ngle 5y agoIt depends. MDN has a better overall information and is more in depth. And more up-to-date. On the other hand, w3schools has that one three-line CSS snippet that you need to copy-paste to center your DIV vertically or whatever, without 5 paragraphs of intro.
- jordanwallwork 5y agoI think the problem is that w3schools _was_ terrible. It certainly seems to have improved, but it's reputation - amongst the older coders that I know, at least - is in the toilet
