Whole std doc in a single html file

I want to translate it to markdown to feed an llm.
My guess is that I will need to scrape it, but maybe there is somebody that did it already.
Thanks.

Generated documentation for `std` with static HTML files

The documentation generated with e.g. zig build-lib -femit-docs works by parsing Zig sources in the browser and generating docs pages on-the-fly, as an SPA. This works alright if you’re just clicking around and searching in the browser, but it means that search engines can’t find documentation about the Zig standard library, and that LLMs are very poorly equipped to assist with learning or writing Zig. Since I personally appreciate being able to delegate things like scouring the standard librar…

The std docs are verbatim copied from the std source code, including explanatory text. So you could just pull the zig source then cat the contents of lib/std.

Somebody has created an MCP server for this exact purpose: GitHub - zig-wasm/zig-mcp: Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides up-to-date documentation for the Zig programming language standard library and builtin functions
