Halachipedia

Our goal is to create a great, useful, and readily available resource for Halacha on the web. Our intentions are leshem shamayim. We aim to police the site to keep contributions true to torah misinai. We envision that an undertaking this massive would only be done as a joint effort by klal yisroel, hence we chose to use the open code wiki platform.

The founder and editors of the site are graduates of Yeshiva University. My brothers and I came up with this idea in 2009. At first, we thought it was impossible to organize and translate all of halacha, but thought we’d give it a try. As time as proven, doing two halachot each day can add up to quite a lot.

In general, the site is meant to cater to Orthodox Jews of all types and minhagim. Therefore, irrelevant of my background, I’m happy to-ß to include as many Orthodox opinions as possible. However, as the site is growing and isn’t finished it’s very possible that a particular opinion on a particular subject is missed. Just let us know and we’ll include it.
