Is there any offline javascript API document tool available like YARD for ruby does?

Question

Mozilla online documentation are great, but sometimes I don't have the internet connection and reference in the o'reilly javascript definitive guide is also great but lack of the handy searchable capability.

I just wonder if there anything for javascript like railsapi, or yard, or jQAPI

Answer 1

You can probably blame the lack of uniform documentation styles and the fact that there is no centrally approved Javascript "stdlib", but there seems to be no such off-line doc generators or generated documentation.

There is, strangely, a certain amount of documentation available as Windows help files (CHM):

• http://prototypejs.org/api,
• http://docs.jquery.com/Alternative_Resources,
• there are mootools CHM floating around the web as well.

Answer 2

http://devdocs.io Searchable offline documentation for JavaScript, DOM Events, HTML, CSS

Answer 3

Heronotes provides you many offline version of good api's documentation, including, HTML, CSS, jQuery, Ruby, Prototype etc...

All the best:)
