As part of the modernization of documentation tooling I'm working on with Documentation Monster, I can now generate a self contained documentation viewer that runs the HTML documentation completely offline - sort of like the old CHM file, but without all the IE browser limitations.
So now we have an offline Web Connection Documentation Viewer:
You can find the offline viewer here:
It's a self-contained EXE that unpacks the Html documentation into a folder and runs it locally.
Check it out and let me know how it works.

Looks Good!
Is that an electron app?
No it's not Electron. It's plain .NET app with an embedded WebView. Also no Web Server but serving using the WebView's built in Virtual Path -> Url mapping.
It's not cross-platform, but it also doesn't have any overhead (ie. no runtime distribution) so it's basically the size of the Help Content plus about 500k.
The viewer is basically generated as part of one of the output options in Documentation Monster.
