Refdocs runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping.
Search technical documentation and read web pages as markdown.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Refdocs every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
