DocBrowser Launch (and Shameless Plug)

January 16th, 2008 by peasleer

I’m one of those people that tends to get distracted when I’m procrastinating. Most often, this comes out when I’m doing a programming assignment and I go to open documentation in my browser. For those of you that weren’t aware, Firefox and Stumbleupon are a developer’s worst nightmare – so many interesting things, only a click away! It had to stop.

So I hacked up DocBrowser, a minimalist’s web browser created solely for the purpose of quickly accessing documentation and APIs. It is free of clutter and distractions, leaving only you and the information you seek on the screen. It is not extendable, and its feature set is limited. It is therefore exactly what I had in mind when I started coding it.

I’ve created a page for it here. It is free, and is only 1.5mb, so why not download it and give it a shot?

Windows only, requires .NET 2.0.
