FAQ

What are HTTP status codes?

They are three-digit numbers a web server returns with every response to tell your browser what happened. 2xx means success, 3xx means redirect, 4xx means the request had a problem, and 5xx means the server had a problem.

Is anything uploaded?

No — it runs in your browser. This is a static reference list, so nothing you type is ever sent to a server. It works offline and stays private.

Why does 301 differ from 302?

A 301 is a permanent redirect (search engines move their index to the new URL), while a 302 is temporary (the original URL keeps its ranking). Use 301 when content has moved for good and 302 for short-term moves.
