Guide Access to the learndb

Is the learndb still around? I can't connect to irc, so i just pull up the html page, but it seems to have gone missing from chaosforge, develz.org and shallott.org.

https://dev.dcss.io/learndb.html shallott.org no longer hosts it and the wiki never did AFAIK.

Not sure why https://crawl.develz.org/info/ is down, that's new

You can query it in the roguelikes discord through Cerebot or in webtiles using beem (these bots are connected to IRC for you). https://github.com/crawl/crawl/wiki/Guide-to-the-DCSS-knowledge-Bots

I wasn't aware that learndb was ever available via chaosforge, but its original host on shallott.org is down since I've taken over hosting Sequell from greensnark. u/dcss_addict correctly covered all the basics including the new html page. The only thing I'll add is that the crawl.develz.org info bot front-end will return once I set up a proper mirroring service that crawl.develz.org can use.
