Microsoft Docs was a library of technical documentation for end users, developers, and IT professionals who work with Microsoft products. The Microsoft Docs website provided technical specifications, conceptual articles, tutorials, guides, API references, code samples and other information related to Microsoft software and web services. Microsoft Docs was introduced in June 2016 as a replacement for the MSDN and TechNet libraries which previously hosted some of these materials. Microsoft Docs initially contained only .NET documentation. The process of migrating the bulk of the MSDN and TechNet libraries' content took approximately two years.
In 2022, Microsoft Docs was made part of the Microsoft Learn site.
