I know of two "standard" HTML manual "types": docsets/dashdocs and devdocs. We have a package in ELPA for the latter written by Augusto. The former also has an Emacs client [1] but it invokes the sqlite3 CLI. We can probably do better now with builtin SQLITE support. It would be nice to have a unifying UI for both of them but I it may be unlikely [2]. 1. https://github.com/dash-docs-el/dash-docs 2. https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/devdocs/issues/117
