MDN/Development

The MDN site is under active development and is constantly evolving. In addition to the paid engineering, writing and product teams, the MDN community contributes feature requests, helps prioritize work and contributes code to the platform.

Development Process

In March of 2013, the MDN development team switched from using Agile to a continuous deployment process using Kanban.
