The documentation is available in markdown alongside the code. You don't need a

I haven't spent any time around Mozilla myself (not that there's anything wrong
with it), so I can't really comment on this.

I could be mistaken but you seem angry. Perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea to
read your own code of conduct, I don't think you need a browser for that either.
