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.

Ask HN: How do I code offline for a week?
There’s stuff like https://zealdocs.org/ that allow you to take all relevant documentation with you so offline coding will work.
If you just want to be productive, you could also bring a lot of books or downloaded tutorials on a drive.
Btw, make sure your drive is encrypted and you think of a way to backup your data so you don’t lose the offline progress.

What's the Difference Between `ruby-doc.org` and `docs.ruby-lang.org`?
For offline documentation, I use Zeal (called Dash on macos) which looks/works almost identically to rubydoc.info but much faster since it's offline, has a standard interface for all installed language documentations, and only 1 global hotkey away while programming.

Googling for answers costs you time
I highly recommend using local solutions to this local issue: Zeal[1] (aka Dash[2] on MacOS)
Load up the "docsets" of your languages (lightly edited HTML docs for indexing purposes) and use a global keyboard shortcut (F8 for me) to pull up Python/Postgres/Terraform docs, searching for the right function without internet query.
This isn't straight up applicable to all questions of course, but "How do I search regular expressions in Python again?" is now as easy as "re"
Note that the docsets can be converted from normal HTML ones via doc2dash[3], especially useful to load up custom docs like private providers.
