I'm playing with Zeal/Dash so I can view stdlib docs offline.
(I've been coding on public transport recently, without a reliable data connection.)
Anyone have tips for making the most of this setup? AFAICT docsets are basically HTML underneath.

One advantage I've come to appreciate about Dash/Zeal docsets: it's really nice having focused search.
The text search is constrained to the languages I care about enough to download the docset, substantially increasing the relevance. In Google I'd need to specify the language.
I've been writing docs for different programming language operators (+, *, == and so on). Each one gets a separate web page.
I've suddenly realised that / is much harder! docs/+ and docs/== is fine, but docs// just doesn't work as a URL in a static site.
Any ideas?
Today I learnt that you can mix HTML inline in markdown! For example, the following is valid.
Foo <hr/>
I'd assumed that you needed HTML separately, like ``` blocks, but no: https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/#raw-html
Admittedly HTML is very restricted on most sites, but it's helpful for SSGs.
