A Sublime Text plugin that integrates Dash (macOS), Zeal (Linux), and Zeal/Velocity (Windows) documentation browsers. It lets developers look up the word under the cursor or selected text in their docsets via a hotkey, with syntax-sensitive docset selection.

Use cases

• look up API documentation for the word under the cursor in Sublime Text
• search Dash or Zeal docsets from the editor with a hotkey
• map Sublime Text syntaxes to specific documentation docsets
• search documentation contextually based on the current file's language
• query any docset topic from Sublime's command palette

When to choose

• you use Sublime Text and Dash, Zeal, or Velocity for offline API docs
• you want syntax-aware docset lookups without leaving the editor
• you need per-project docset mappings for different languages

When to avoid

• you use VS Code, Vim, or another editor instead of Sublime Text
• you don't use Dash, Zeal, or Velocity documentation browsers
• you prefer browsing docs in a separate app or browser
