  • zeal

    Offline documentation browser inspired by Dash

  • It’s not widely advertised (probably this is the deal) but Zeal works fine on macOS, see this: https://github.com/zealdocs/zeal/wiki/Build-Instructions-for...

    You don’t need to build it yourself, there is a brew formula.

  • devdocs

    API Documentation Browser

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

    InfluxDB logo
  • feeds

    Collection of Dash docset feeds

  • devdocs.el

    Emacs viewer for DevDocs

  • I didn't know zeal was being updated at all since the last "release" is almost 5 years old.

    I recently discovered devdocs.io and the emacs integration[1] and like it so far.

  • doxygen2docset

    From Doxygen documentation, create a Docset for use in Dash or Zeal.

  • https://github.com/chinmaygarde/doxygen2docset or https://pypi.org/project/doxytag2zealdb.

    Otherwise is it probably best to look for a specific tool for the type of docs and then look through the GitHub submissions to the user-generated docset submissions for clues for specific code bases: https://github.com/Kapeli/Dash-User-Contributions/pulls?q=is...

  • Dash-User-Contributions

    Dash repo of user contributed docsets

  • https://github.com/chinmaygarde/doxygen2docset or https://pypi.org/project/doxytag2zealdb.

    Otherwise is it probably best to look for a specific tool for the type of docs and then look through the GitHub submissions to the user-generated docset submissions for clues for specific code bases: https://github.com/Kapeli/Dash-User-Contributions/pulls?q=is...
