devdocs.el VS jit-spell

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.

A clarification - I don't consider Jinx a fork of Jit-spell, otherwise I would have made this clear in the package README and the package header. There is no code shared between the two packages and the overall approach differs in the essential points (Enchant vs external process, Checking only the visible region, ...). It is true that I started Jinx because of our discussion https://github.com/astoff/jit-spell/issues/9, but this does not make Jinx a fork. Jinx is technically closer to spell-fu, which uses a similar technique, where only the visible region in the window is checked.
