Wikiman: An Offline Search Engine For Arch Linux, Gentoo Wiki, And More

Official documentation of applications or commands is always the best way to learn about them if you want to know every detail, which a blog or article can’t provide. And in the Linux community, we can’t deny Arch Wiki is truly a go-to place for anything you want to learn about Linux. Besides Arch, there are other documentations as well which you may also want to prefer like Gentoo or FreeBSD. So, whether you want to know about a command or jargon in Linux, you can refer to any of the Wiki sites available. But if you’re looking for something that can provide documentation not only of Arch Linux but also of Gentoo, FreeBSD, and others to read in an offline mode, meet Wikiman.
