We were speaking about this at the W3C's Advisory Board meeting in London earlier this week. It distresses me that the specs on w3.org are so hard to read for the average developer. It's great to see how MDN focuses on simplicity, readability, and usable examples.
Cool!
> One of our guiding principles in developing Microsoft Edge is that end users should never have to worry about which sites work in which browsers. This philosophy—”the Web should just work for everyone“—led to our choice to target the “interoperable intersection” of web APIs in our browser engineering. That's a good move by MS. In this context it's great to see them supporting open codecs, and for istance OGG contai…
Don't forget you can use https://devdocs.io/ too which also searches MDN and store offline. The two are a great pair.

The is great indeed. I hope w3schools.com won't appear in Google search result. BTW, It feels like OP omitted to mention to MS in the title though.
This is a great start. Now let's integrate caniuse into every single MDN page.
MDN already has compatibility tables for lots of things; if they're missing from a particular article, it's not because they're unsupported, it's because nobody has done the research and filled in the information (it's a wiki! You can add things!).
If caniuse had embeds, they could easily replace the existing compat tables on MDN.

Déjà vu. Previously ( checks email …almost exactly 5 years ago?! Christ, it was a long time ago), the web powers that be announced they were going to collaborate on a new web docs wiki.[0] I don't think it went anywhere because, well, MDN already existed. I'm glad they finally just surrendered to MDN, even if it was many years late. [0] https://www.w3.org/2012/10/webplatform.html.en
