This integration enhances productivity by enabling developers to access documentation directly within their preferred IDE.

  • Import Functionality from Mac: The software allows users to import docsets from macOS, making it easy to transfer existing documentation libraries between platforms.

  • URL Protocol Compatibility: Velocity supports URL protocols compatible with Dash, ensuring smooth integration with other tools and workflows.

  • Windows Compatibility: The application is fully tested for compatibility with Windows 7 and Windows 8, providing a stable experience across these operating systems.
