How I’m a Productive Programmer With a Memory of a Fruit Fly
The advantage of being open source is there is an entire ecosystem developed around it. Apart from offering more docs than Dash, it also has a VS.Code Extension, native macOs and Linux apps and more.

Not for me. Maybe I need to dig in, I'm on bullseye, maybe it's only in the older build repositories?
Anyway, I found this https://github.com/qwfy/doc-browser that I'm compiling right now to see how it works, looks keyboard focused, simpler and supports DevDocs, and bonus it supports Hoogle if you're a Haskeller.

Zeal is an offline documentation browser for software developers

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.
