How would somebody implement offline support?

Currently, a launch still requires an internet connection in order to download the initial html + web worker scripts. Now my question is mostly about the architecture: Is it possible to offer the index files baked into the app itself; so that this is not necessary anymore?

I've seen that that the web application cache is enabled in the devdocs_desktop.py but I'm currently unsure on how to provide a cache.

Do you know whether or not webkitgtk can be integrated with a self-provided cache file for the index.html?

Would it be possible to add flatpak version of the app? I don't have access to needed version of GTK.

As visible on the joined screenshot, when selecting or unselecting a checkbox in the list of enabled docs, it's surrounded by text-decoration dots, but it doesn't exactly fit around the checkbox: it goes a little more far on the left.

I installed the AUR package and found that the Enable dark theme switch stops being respected after pressing Save button in Preferences, so the program resets to the original theme in any case. And the program always starts with the original theme, even when the switch of the dark theme is enabled.

The screen below is the only thing that the app can load no matter what I do; no other application on my machine has connectivity issues. I have purged and reinstalled the app multiple times. Running from console doesn't seem to give any warnings or errors, nor could I figure out how to access some sort of developer tools on for WebKit2. I have no experience with this python tool, but I'm looking into it so that I can try to be helpful.

Is it possible to add support for zooming the text using Ctrl-- and Ctrl-+ or the mousewheel?

This is related to #15

Steps:

1. Open any doc with link inside (e.g. os.path)
2. Click on external link
3. Nothing happens

As visible on the joined screenshot, application complain about being unable to resolve devdocs.io if there's no connection when it's opened (need the connection at launch, fail otherwise).

Error resolving “devdocs.io”: Temporary failure in name resolution

Allow multiple tabs to open another index. Main use case, accesing https://devdocs.baznga.org/offline without tweaking the code. They're several docsets there not available in the main devdocs.io site.

This is something that has in DevDocs web, but in DevDocs-Desktop does not. The GTK default behavior when tab is used is to go to the next button or something clickable.

It would be nice to bind / or Ctrl + F to focusing the search box.

When we pass a string to devdocs-desktop (devdocs-desktop [STRING]) it does not leave the process in the background.

We could leave the process in the background and a single instance to search

High DPI is not supported and the GTK_SCALE option makes the entire UI look weird

I do not know if it is possible to migrate this application to Windows because of GKT3 + and now dbus service (9d516d0). We can leave this issue open and populate with useful information(this is my suggestion).

Hi there! First of all, thank you for creating and maintaining this project! It is super useful and I really appreciate your time and effort.

DevDocs has a CTRL+ENTER shortcut to open a page in a new tab. I think it would be great to add this functionality as well. Perhaps by simply opening the page in the user's browser, or if you prefer having everything in the program itself, maybe add some sort of tab functionality?

The shortcut for search, /, doesn't work, neither does continuing typing.
