  • c_koans

  • zeal

    Offline documentation browser inspired by Dash

  • As a side note, if you're looking to be able to access offline documentation for the entire tech stack for any projects (primary or otherwise) I highly recommend https://kapeli.com/dash (or https://zealdocs.org/ for other platforms).

    I also find that when working on a laptop with limited arm mobility and screen size, it's tremendously useful to be able to switch between IDE, documentation, and browser (for localhost review) with a single keystroke. On macOS I use a combination of Karabiner and BetterTouchTools to bind my caps lock key to hide or show my IDE, and other apps to command-caps-lock etc.; having an instant, tactile hardware switch between IDE and non-IDE is almost as good as having double the monitor space!

  • devdocs

    API Documentation Browser

  • go-koans

    koans for go

  • as a 2m / 6'5" person... you are so lucky

    I wish I could zip through a set of programming koans on a flight like https://github.com/cdarwin/go-koans without elbowing my seat neighbors to a pulp

    if I could even get the table tray down. more often than not i eat with the food on my knees :(
