Zeal is a software development tool that will give us with an offline documentation browser. Dash, a commercial program built specifically for Mac OS, inspired Zeal. Zeal provides documentation sets (documents) for a wide range of programming languages and applications. You may read them all online or on your team by downloading the manuals. This will allow any developer to locate what they need without having to use Google or the official documentation website. You only need to obtain the documentation set that we want to use. Everything else will be handled by Zeal. Zeal is a lightweight offline API documentation browser for Linux and Windows that is inspired by Dash (Mac OS X program). It has the following characteristics:

  • Using the Alt+Space (or configurable) shortcut, you can quickly search documentation and show Zeal from anywhere in your workstation.
  • Search through various pieces of documentation at the same time.
  • Don’t rely just on your internet connection.
