The Tripitaka (Pali Canon)
Meaning "Three Baskets," the foundational collection of Buddhist scriptures prominent in Theravada Buddhism: rules for monks and nuns (Vinaya), discourses of the Buddha (Sutta), and philosophical analysis (Abhidhamma). Presents the complete Dhammapada, the complete Digha Nikaya and Majjhima Nikaya, and a substantial selection from the Samyutta and Anguttara Nikayas, in Bhikkhu Sujato's translation (SuttaCentral, CC0) plus 19th-century selections -- not the full Pali Canon, which runs to many millions of words.
