Yes, you can get current code examples and API references by routing queries to live official sources. The skill fetches documentation on demand to answer setup, config, and code generation questions with citations to the latest official sources.

What's the best way to resolve setup and configuration questions for unfamiliar libraries?▼

The best way to resolve setup and configuration questions is querying the library directly. The skill uses a resolution step to identify the library, match the best available docs, and fetch through query-docs with version awareness to provide accurate configuration steps.

Does Context7 work with any framework or library documentation found online?▼

Context7 works by identifying libraries and frameworks from your questions, ranking results by closest name match and version specificity, and fetching the best documentation from official sources. It applies to setup questions, code generation, and API references for supported libraries.

Why does my library setup code fail when using outdated API references?▼
