User friendly web based manpages

iptables

explainshell.com is a web based application that contains 29761 parsed manpages from sections 1 and 8 found in Ubuntu's manpage repository. Personally, I find it really useful and interactive for beginner learners. Just type in a shell command and it will explain to you what it means.
