Subject: [ELPA] New package: evdocs
Date: Sat, 29 May 2021 13:54:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h7il4ux7.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

I would like to submit a new package to GNU ELPA:

  evdocs: Emacs viewer for DevDocs
  https://github.com/astoff/evdocs/

DevDocs (https://devdocs.io) is a webapp providing documentation for
several languages and APIs, suitably formatted and indexed for search,
with the option to download the data for offline use.

This little package provides a viewer similar to the Info browser, so
one can read those documents directly in Emacs.  Some advantages of this
include the ability to activate specific documents on a buffer-local
basis, and using one's favorite completion framework to find
documentation entries.

Many bells and whistles can still be added to the package, which I
intend do over time if it's deemed worth including in ELPA.

[About the silly name: "devdocs" is already taken by a MELPA package.
That package is quite different and doesn't provide a viewer; it simply
calls `browse-url' on a suitable https://devdocs.io location.]
