Requirements and Installation

Homebrew 🍻

For Homebrew users doc2dash is available from a Homebrew tap:

$ brew install hynek/tap/doc2dash

PyPI

The latest stable version can be always found on PyPI.

If you have uv installed, running doc2dash is as simple as:

$ uvx run doc2dash --help

uv will even install Python for you if necessary. All platforms that run Python are supported.

Viewer

To view the results, you will need a docset viewer, the most commonly known being Dash for macOS.

Other alternatives have been developed in cooperation with Dash’s developer Kapeli:

• helm-dash for Emacs,
• and Zeal for Linux and Windows.

doc2dash is only tested against the original Dash, though.
