DevDocs

Enable the devdocs you want to use in the workflow configuration. The enabled devdocs are searched by using the name as keyword, for example haskell foobar to search the Haskell DevDocs for "foobar."

A few common languages have short-hands noted in the popup selection, such as js for JavaScript. In this case, you use js foobar to search instead.
