DevDocs
emacs integration: https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el

Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
devdocs.el: Documentation reader with quick and handy lookup commands. It is similar to the built-in Info reader, but has a different (likely larger) document coverage.

Zeal is an offline documentation browser for software developers
I use this (https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el) emacs package to download devdocs locally and access them from emacs, which is pretty great.

I've found what I've been looking for!!
Support for other languages is a good point. Most don't ship info documentation. :P If you want something inside a normal Emacs buffer rather than a separate browser-like application, maybe you'd enjoy devdocs.io and astoff's devdocs.el package.

Emacs help interface for languages other than emacs-lisp
Wow, so many devdocs packages! Of the two I mentioned, devdocs-browser is the one in the emacs-devdocs-browser repo you found. But the other one I was thinking of didn't turn up in your search: devdocs. I wasn't aware of the others you found, probably because they aren't on GNU ELPA or on MELPA.

Zeal is an offline documentation browser for software developers
https://github.com/chinmaygarde/doxygen2docset or https://pypi.org/project/doxytag2zealdb.
Otherwise is it probably best to look for a specific tool for the type of docs and then look through the GitHub submissions to the user-generated docset submissions for clues for specific code bases: https://github.com/Kapeli/Dash-User-Contributions/pulls?q=is...

Dash looks like a great project but the community doc contributions are a security concern. Docs are uploaded to git as Tars, nothing is stopping someone from adding malicious code to these tar uploads which developers will download unknowingly when they add a community doc.
See: https://github.com/Kapeli/Dash-User-Contributions
