- Number of successfully completed tasks = Reach * Helpfulness
- Reach
- Number of sessions, measured by traffic stats
- Helpfulness
- Percent of tasks completed, that is, "Did the reader find the info needed for their task?", measured by surveying a sample of readers
Staff Team
MDN is supported by a cross-functional team with web development, content creation, and other relevant skill sets.
See the MDN Durable Team page for information about this team's members, plans, and processes. In addition to the Durable Team, Janet Swisher is the Community Manager for MDN.
The MDN staff team forms the core of a much larger community of MDN contributors, open to anyone interested in getting involved.
Getting involved
The MDN community is a group of staff and volunteers with the goal of providing useful information and utilities to web developers. We are always happy to help new contributors get involved in writing, editing, localizing, and coding on MDN, and we encourage everyone to participate in helping to make MDN the best it can be.
