Where does everyone browse the C standard library, posix library, and separately glibc?

Is there any really nice listing/walk through these standard libraries/rustdoc like website?

Does everyone just dig through header files and man pages all day?

cppreference [1] has also entries for the C standard library. POSIX/SuS is directly available from opengroup [2]. glibc is better browsed from local man pages, or for a more organic discussion, info pages. Searching 'man function-name' also usually works.

Thanks! Yeah CPP reference is what I tend to find on the internet, but quite surprised there isn't something a bit more "modern" that combines all these.

Searching also revealed some good university guides, the standards, ETC -- just very surprising that people doing day to day work with C are fine with that tooling-wise, though of course people have jump-to-definition so maybe reading header files is "good enough".
