#22It seems that this time it got more traction. Good luck with your project!
Re: DevDocs API Documentation
#23Due to some very annoying behaviour of gratipay (the donation service devdocs uses) I have donated over $100 to them last year of the course of a few months. Not what I wanted to donate, but then again there aren't many websites that I use more often in my day to day work. So I am not too bummed about it. Great work guys!
Re: DevDocs API Documentation
#24* It links to the real documentation
* world class search
* lets you pick and choose versions and languages/frameworks you want to have searchable
* provides a consistent UI across all docs which is fantastic when you are switching between several while developing.
* Is updated with terrifying frequency (I don't think I've ever opened it and NOT had some kind of docs update notification!)
* There are editor plugins available that let you press a key and open the highlighted word as search in devdocs.io
If you use devdocs.io and feel like it has saved you time or money, donate to them on Gratipay [0].

#26Reminds me of Dash[1] which is especially useful when configured in your editor: press a key to open documentation for the word under the cursor. 1: https://kapeli.com/dash
But you pay for Dash subscription, this one seems to be free.
For what it’s worth on Linux the open source alternative is Zeal

Also, works on GNU/Linux and Windows. Also, free software. Also, I'm the co-author.

Don't feel like you have to donate, though. The app is cheap to host (one of the benefits of an offline-enabled, no-accounts-required, optimized-to-the-max web app is that the backend doesn't do much :P), and I'm lucky that MaxCDN & others are providing free service to the app.
What keeps me going is seeing the impact that DevDocs is having (people using and liking it). So the best way to "give back" is to spread the word, send a thank you note, and contribute (one thing in particular that would be great to see is more/better extensions & integrations with code editors).

And open-source :) ( https://github.com/Thibaut/devdocs ) Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer of DevDocs
As a long-time dash user in the past, devdocs felt like home and just works nicely and without any unnecessary features.
