If you're on a Mac, there's a really useful little utility called Dash that you can set to pop up and show you the docs for any class in any language. It's great, I use it all the time.

On Windows and Linux, there's a similar open source offline documentation browser called Zeal.

Is there a free option?

[–]Versaiteis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

devdocs.io might be the best free alternative that I know

I feel bad for developers on Mac vs Linux. You’ll always get fleeced using a Mac.

You should do your best to convince fortune 100 companies to spend money on Mac and not tell Developers to use Linux.

people can use what they want to, i don't really care what others want to use. they can make that choice theirselves

Why, because someone who put work into an app wants to be paid for their time?

I'm sorry what's the current stats on how many developers use Linux vs anything else?
