Surprised that R isn't on there since it is a top 10 language. The ecosystem though is pretty huge and R Base without Hadley Wickham's tidyverse isn't very useful for me. Also would love to see Racket notes.

Due 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!
Thanks! Your donation is very much appreciated. 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).…

Is there a way to request Elm library docs be included?
You can submit pull requests to add new docs if you're so motivated.
I really like this service and really wanted to add some more docs I often use to it. Unfortunately I discovered why some interesting ones can be missing. For example AWS can't be included, because Amazon forbids third party distribution of their documentation pages. It's really disappointing when companies limit the usability of what they produce that way.

What? That link doesn't have any proof that "the Dash author has engaged in unethical practices". Neither any other link I could find about the whole controversy. Actually, everyone seems to be saying things are complicated, what seemed to be true actually wasn't, it's hard to take sides, etc: https://daringfireball.net/2016/10/apple_dash_controversy
Gruber makes it pretty clear in your link that the author of Dash engaged in unethical practices, just not with the Dash app (or the account used to publish Dash). Heck, publishing the phone call alone is unethical, regardless of any of the alleged app review behavior.

I think you or the mods should remove your comments because they are potentially defamatory. There is indeed no evidence that the Dash author himself was responsible, he says it was a family member.
They’re allegations, sure. I said that in my second comment. But Tom didn’t hedge his words there.
I can't recommend devdocs.io enough! It's such a fantastic resource. * 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…
* Ability to tab-select [1] a language to limit your search to.
The lack of this feature in Zeal [2] is one of the reasons I stay with devdocs although i tend to like old-school real desktop apps.

Something similar which I really love for terminal is tldr : https://tldr.sh/ Behaves like a substitute for man pages with most useful examples. Saved me hours of googling and searching.
