Browse and Discover Manpages (programming.dev)

How do you discover system builtins for C functions? The man pages for the C functions on Linux are great, but only if you know the name of the function. Is there a way to see a detailed table of contents, or to browse Manpages on a Linux distro?

There's also apropos which searches man pages on keyword.
