  <summary>Your offline reference library</summary>
  <description>
    <p>Zeal is an offline documentation browser that keeps the references you rely on right on your computer, ready the moment you need them — on a plane, off the grid, or just on flaky Wi-Fi. Instant search takes you straight to the right page before a browser tab would even finish loading.</p>
    <p>Build your personal library from over 900 docsets in the same format Dash uses, covering programming languages, frameworks, and tools. Open results in tabs and summon Zeal from anywhere with a global shortcut.</p>
