devdocs.el VS Elpy

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

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.

I use this (https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el) emacs package to download devdocs locally and access them from emacs, which is pretty great.

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.

+1. I'm using an amazing Emacs package that treats DevDocs kinda like Dash: https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el

info-like: https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el

devdocs.el to read documentation

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.

If you want to stick with Elpy, I'd suggest side-stepping the RealPython tutorial and diving in to Elpy's documentation directly. But keep in mind that the project has been looking for a new maintainer since March of 2021.

Elpy allows to do that with its folding module.

you can use elpy for that its not lsp but it might be faster than pyright.

The last commit in https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy master was 16 days ago, so it seems yes.

And I'm using Elpy on Emacs. It works like a charm, which provides (quote from it README): - Code completion - Code Navigation - Interactive evaluation and interactive Python shell - On-the-fly syntax checking - Access to documentation

This is one of the (minor) reasons I abandoned anaconda-mode (default for Doom) for elpy. You can do the same with this snippet in your packages.el lisp (package! anaconda-mode :ignore t) (package! elpy :recipe (:host github :repo "jorgenschaefer/elpy") :pin "2203597") ;; Commit date 2021/3/28 Anaconda is lightweight by comparison. Elpy is also a python package that needs to be installed. Read their docs before using. https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy

I (current maintainer of Elpy) am not able to properly maintain the project anymore.

For python development, I use https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy (Elpy is an Emacs package to bring powerful Python editing to Emacs. It combines and configures a number of other packages, both written in Emacs Lisp as well as Python.)
