Patrick - How to convince your boss to sponsor Open Web Docs
A blog post by Patrick Brosset: How to convince your boss to sponsor Open Web Docs
Does your organization rely on MDN for reference docs?
Do you often check browser compat on MDN or caniuse.com?
Do you use tools like browser DevTools or VSCode in your work?
If so, you rely directly on the work that Open Web Docs does and should consider sponsoring.
To convince your boss.

screenshot of a diagram showing the number of new "keys" (basically apis or components of apis) added to the web per year from 1996 thru 2025, showing a generally upward trend, and with a pointer to 2017 being a banner year for new apis added.
visualizing the surface-area growth rate of the web platform
based on Browser Compat Data (BCD) data set from @openwebdocs.org.
not be 100% correct yet, but the gist is right.

In 2024, we identified missing reference pages for widely available features and created ~600 new pages on MDN Web Docs to fill this gap.
We also continued to play an essential maintainer role by reviewing pull requests for mdn/content and mdn/browser-compat-data.

In 2024, we joined the W3C Security Web Application Guidelines Community Group (SWAG CG).
We created and rewrote docs about XSS and CSP and will continue this work in 2025 to make sure we promote security best practices and help developers understand security threats and their mitigations.

In 2024, we cataloged web platform features, became a maintainer of the W3C WebDX github.com/web-platform... project, and made sure it syncs up nicely with browser-compat-data.

In 2024, thanks to an investment from @sovereign.tech, we systematically collected compatibility data for 30 browser releases throughout the entire year. As a result, whenever browsers shipped new features, the data was already available on @mozdevnet.bsky.social, caniuse.com, and other projects.
