Third-Party Documentation Sources

Dash integrates with package managers to generate documentation sets for anything you might need, as well as provide custom documentation sources of its own.

Docset Generator

The built-in Docset Generator lets you scrape websites or index local HTML files to build fully searchable, offline docsets.

Perfect for internal documentation, open source projects, or any docs you want searchable in Dash.

AI Integration

Dash supports MCP (Model Context Protocol), integrating with AI assistants like Claude or ChatGPT. Give your AI tools access to up-to-date documentation for the newest frameworks and packages.

Snippets

Powerful text expansion that works everywhere on your Mac. Save code templates, boilerplate, and frequently-typed text with smart placeholders. Type a short abbreviation in any app and watch it expand instantly into the full snippet.

Features interactive placeholders, syntax highlighting for 150+ languages, tag-based organization, and system-wide expansion in every application.
