What are the best textbooks (or comprehensive primers) which are freely available online? Ideally as web content, not as PDF.

Mr was working on a big project along these lines (though it's been a while—not sure of its status!)

A staggeringly huge project indeed! All of SICM and Functional Differential Geometry now work in the browser and on JVM... I've just finished the slog of retyping the entire FDG book, all math etc so I can actually push the FULL book into the browser too.

(Hi !!)
Library: github.com/sicmutils/sicm
book: github.com/sicmutils/fdg- (SICM in progress too)
browser example: nextjournal.com/try/samritchie
I've also got commit access to acko.net/blog/mathbox2/ and am porting that to modern JS, so I can drive it from a cljs REPL.

, I'd love to catch up in the new year! I am happy to report that I have a number of working physicists using this stuff, extending it with (for example) an algebraic simplifier for quantum states, using those in daily work... Executable twitches coming to life.
