Dang these are much more useful than my first port of call for looking up http codes... which is http.cat/<code>. It's a shame you have to know what a code is to get to it... e.g. /404-not-found works instead of /404

You don't need to know the name. You can increment the URL directly as well

Was going to post this, the Mozilla content is great.

Title should probably be updated to include the fact that this is from 2018 (relevant as this series has been completed as opposed to having just been started)

Also, it is slightly outdated as it does not incorporate RFC9110 which renames some status codes which previously were WebDAV-only:

Correct (and already done by now). Just a few days ago, there was the remarkable example that Cloudflare wants to use the code 402 (payment required) to keep AI crawlers away or ask them to pay. I still think it's a great idea, hopefully something will come of it.

I read the url as: ever t-pot, as a reference to 418. Turns out it's the author's actual name.
