Hi everyone,

I built an Android app called HexReader to browse and download Hex.pm documentation for offline reading.
The app mirrors documentation from hexdocs.pm (HTML, CSS, assets) and stores it locally, so you can read package docs without an internet connection.
What it does:

  • search any Hex.pm package by name
  • download docs for offline reading
  • one-tap download of the official Elixir language documentation
  • clean, Material 3 design
    How to use:
  1. search for a package (e.g., phoenix_live_view)
  2. open the package details
  3. tap “Download docs”
  4. access it anytime from the “Downloaded documentation” section
    It also has a dedicated button to download the Elixir language documentation, since it is not a regular Hex.pm package.

Why I built it:
I often work offline or with poor connectivity and wanted quick access to Elixir docs on my phone. Reading documentation on a mobile browser is not great, so a native app felt like a better experience.
It is open source and free:

Thanks!
