Going on a week long trip, travelling by land, with a few days of travel in sometimes poor network connectivity gave me a reason to check up on my offline docs setup. Zeal is an awesome #opensource offline docs browser based on the proprietary Dash documentation browser, supporting the same docsets. Updating the core docs is easy enough with a few clicks, but I wanted to also have the #Matrix spec with me fully offline. This was recently contributed by Christian Paul - but unfortunately Zeal lacks proper support for easily pulling in Dash user contributed docsets.

No fear, there is a handy CLI app to install user contributed Dash docsets called zeal-user-contrib. Just install, run and choose the docsets you want installed.
