Usually, it’s not a problem to code offline in any other software because they usually have their docs downloaded into the program, but Roblox doesn’t have that.
Just having the docs as a .pdf or something, even if unpractical would already be better than nothing because sometimes I forget a class method or its arguments.
Is there a way to download the Roblox docs? Where?
Also, I’m using Rojo so even if Roblox Studio had the docs in it probably would be useless since you can’t edit directly offline

Yes, but usually all software docs have an offline version, it’s just a bunch of text.

And I don’t really want the tutorial pages, just the Roblox classes, events, properties, methods, etc.

uh i dont think roblox studio has
That’s sad, editing offline with Rojo is so good, I’m trying to get rid of the few downsides that it has but Roblox doesn’t help. ;(

Most of the Documentation is open-source and available on GitHub:
You can use VS Code to view Markdown files (.md
) by opening one and hitting Ctrl +Shift +V
Media (images, videos etc) is also available in the content/assets
directory

ohhhh thats cool then! maybe im gonna download it
It’s really useful whenever you’re offline using Rojo or anything like that.
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
For anyone who finds this thread in the future: the Roblox LSP
VSCode extension is much more practical:
also supports type checking:
edit: I thought that I had Roblox LSP disabled and that selene
was doing this, the edit corrects that.
