What it is
An open source application that aggregates the official documentation for hundreds of languages, frameworks and libraries into one interface with instant search, keyboard navigation and offline caching.
Why it is worth switching to
Speed and consistency. Every documentation site has its own search, its own layout and its own idea of navigation, and the cost of that friction across a working day is larger than it feels. One interface, one keyboard shortcut, one search box across everything you use is a real productivity gain.
The offline part
You choose which documentation sets to download, and they work with no connection. Useful on a plane, on poor connectivity, and any time you would rather not be one tab away from something else.
Best for: every developer, and particularly anyone working across several languages at once.

Stuck on something specific?
Writing only gets you so far. If you want an answer to your situation rather than the general case, book a session and we will work through it together. Every session is free; a few slots open each week.
