I love devdocs, but I'm forever salty that they don't include C# as one of their languages.

  if the C# docs have a flexible license , then you could add them

    Unfortunately it seems to be the opinion of whoever controls the devdocs language requests[1] that the MSDN boilerplate license[2] is not permissive in this regard. However, devdocs is notable enough that they could easily at least ask for the written permission.

      Certain parts of Microsoft Learn are permissive, most .NET/C# documentation is Creative Commons Attribution: * Conceptual docs: https://github.com/dotnet/docs https://github.com/dotnet/docs * BCL: https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-api-docs https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-api-docs * ASP.NET Core: https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs * WinForms/WPF: https://github.com/dotnet/docs-desktop https://github.com/dotnet/docs-desktop The C# language specification is unfortunately a bit fuzzier, but the conceptual docs above include what most people want: https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/discussions/4855 https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/discussions/4855 The updated unified C# language specification is CC, but it's still catching up to modern C#: https://github.com/dotnet/csharpstandard https://github.com/dotnet/csharpstandard

    MS docs ar now on github. Licence lists "CC-BY-4 and MIT licence found" https://github.com/dotnet/docs/tree/main https://github.com/dotnet/docs/tree/main Yeah, I saw that devdocs and the like don't include what was previously not cross platform and not popular for linux guys: C#, msbuild.
