MediaWiki Frontend API

This documentation describes the public API that user scripts, gadgets, skins, and extensions can use to interact with MediaWiki. To interact with MediaWiki from outside a wiki, use the Action API.

The MediaWiki frontend API consists of global variables and ResourceLoader modules.
