About iDocSet

iDocSet is a tool for reading offline docsets.

With iDocSet, you can leave your Mac alone, reading your favorite docsets on mobile devices (iPhone or iPad) anywhere, anytime.

Main features:

* Support browsing Apple Developer Documentation of Xcode 12 or later.

* Support browsing more docsets.

    iDocSet has a built-in download source and supports more than 50 docsets, such as Android, HTML, CSS, jQuery, C++, Go, Rust, ...

    After the user adds a docset, it is automatically downloaded and installed, and the auxiliary tool iDocSetHelper is no longer needed.

* Various ways to browse docsets.

    Apple Development Documentation can be browsed layer by layer in a hierarchical structure, which is basically the same as viewing in Xcode. Other types of docsets can be viewed according to API interface types (class, interface, method, etc.).

    It also provides a filtering function, which can filter out records that do not contain specified keywords, so that it is convenient to quickly locate the required interface document.

* Support search multiple docsets.

    iDocSet can search API interfaces across docsets to further facilitate and quickly find the required interface documents.

* Support bookmark function.

    Bookmark data can be saved on iCloud. It's convenient for users to continue to view on other devices.
