Great to see Rust won't be starved for support.

Now someone needs to take over MDN . By far the best JavaScript documentation



I don't think MDN is going to go anywhere anytime soon. I remember someone on Twitter saying that there are enough people from other organizations who had already been involved in the MDN docs before the lay-offs at Mozilla and that these people will likely stay involved.

Case in point: Both the MDN Github repos and the MDN docs (or at least all the pages I bothered to look at) show very recent activity:

https://github.com/mdn/

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web (scroll all the way down to "Last modified")

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/A_re...


Still helps to have paid employees working on it.

I'm happy to see community involvement, but it's such a vital resource that deserves funding


Why does someone need to take over MDN?


Firefox laid off the MDN team a couple months ago. https://mobile.twitter.com/SteveALee/status/1293487542382333...


Mozilla doesn't have the money to keep supporting it
