 @f3c16413 yep search is all client side. You can also do rustup doc --std to open the local copy of the standard library docs.

 @60ead002 right - yet we still go for the online edition. Why is local documentation not the first pick? For me I suspect it’s just habit of looking things up via search engines.

 @f3c16413 I use the local docs for the standard library (I have the tab open right now) because it opens the version that match the version of rust you're using in the project you run the command from.

As for online docs, yeah I dunno 😅 although in this specific instance I was poking around the docs of a crate in order to link to them in a comment, so needed the online URL.
