The Web Compatibility Knowledge Base
This repository contains a subset of the Web Compatibility teams' knowledge about real-world site breakage. With this collection, we hope to
- ease some diagnosis tasks by offering a searchable collection of already known breakage and their symptoms,
- inform Firefox engineering prioritization,
- share knowledge between members of the Web Compatibility team.
Please note that this is still an early work in progress, and everything in this repo can and will change. Therefore, you should not rely on the data without consulting the WebCompat team first!
