W3schools is a piece of shit that shouldn't be used anyway. They publish inaccurate information and always have. Plus, we have mdn, a similar concept for a website just executed 1000% better.

I've just started learning to code. ._. I have no Idea yet what is good and what not. I just looked up an example for Boolean and W3 Schools was the first that came up.

Why is it so bad? Everything Ive read so far from there was pretty accurate. But it was mostly beginner Stuff tho.

Like I said, they have incorrect information. I can't recommend MDN enough, especially because they have browser compatibility info

Beginner stuff is good enough as far as I remember, just try not to rely on it too much in the long term (since MDN is also a good alternative)

I don't think it's bad--it's impossible to make error-free material, and it's more error-free than not, for sure.

But other people are right: you'll "graduate" to MDN and not look at W3 Schools again.

Someone likes fish

What?

Did you just commented just because you saw W3School and didn't even read the image ?

That was hours ago and I lost context. However had I actually done that, justified.

W3schools does tend to be more beginner friendly that MDN

They still have some few good content. I didn't found an equivalent of the (inexhaustive) selector list of W3School on mdn.

Ive had to make websites on networks that block mdn but not w3schools for some reason
