What is DevDocs?

DevDocs brings documentation for hundreds of languages, frameworks and libraries into a single, fast interface with instant search. It is free and open source, maintained by freeCodeCamp, and you can enable only the docs you use and save them for offline reading in your browser.

Pros: what DevDocs does well

  • One search for many docs
  • Works offline once downloaded
  • Fast and keyboard friendly

Cons: where it falls short

  • Some docs lag behind new releases
  • Reference material only, not tutorials

Who DevDocs is for

Developers who switch between languages and libraries and want their docs in one place.

Who can skip it

People who do not write code.
