Please note (Feb 27, 2024): We are building a dedicated portal for Sefaria ecosystem developers to better support you, inspire you, and to help you get your projects up and running. Please make our new dev portal your first stop when looking for documentation and bear with us while we migrate content from GitHub to the portal over the next few weeks. We'd love to hear from you, be in touch with us at: [email protected]!
