Research direction
The goal is to add a recommendation in the contributing documentation (likely in the markdown files under docs/about/contributing/) that contributors writing example code should use the Selenium demo website at https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/. The change is localized and does not require understanding of the codebase structure beyond the documentation folder. No linked PRs or maintainer questions exist, so the contributor can proceed with a simple edit to the relevant file.
