I've found what I've been looking for!!
And if you do stick with Zeal, there is the zeal-at-point package. You still need the external Zeal reader, but at least it gives you a convenient way to lookup stuff in it from within Emacs.

Is there an emacs equivalent of "Dash.app" ?
I’ve used Zeal (a cross-platform Dash alternative) with zeal-at-point. Recently though I’ve gone all in on LSP, and highly recommended. Speaking from experience, at least for Haskell and Go, the integrated documentation is excellent.

Is there an emacs equivalent of "Dash.app" ?
I haven't used Dash, so I don't know the specifics of what it works, but if it works like running pydoc or godoc or whatever Java has inside your text editor, here is a plugin for pydoc inside emacs and here's another for godoc (as part of a larger mode for go). I just tested godoc and it seems to work fine, if a little too basic.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing zeal-at-point and pydoc you can also consider the following projects:
GNU/Emacs go-mode - Emacs mode for the Go programming language
lsp-mode - Emacs client/library for the Language Server Protocol
dash-docs - A elisp library that exposes functionality to work with and search dash docsets.
counsel-dash - Browse Dash docsets using Ivy
devdocs.el - Emacs viewer for DevDocs
nvim-lspconfig - Quickstart configs for Nvim LSP
helm-dash - Browse Dash docsets inside emacs
