Create Your Own Local Copy of the Django Documentation

sudo easy_install Sphinx

Inside your local SVN checkout of Django:

cd docs
make html

Now you’ll have a beautiful local copy of the documentation to browse for those rare moments when you’re away from the internet (perhaps you’re in a fort?). Just point your browser to:

file:///path/to/your/django/docs/_build/html/index.html

Weird, on my MB, finder wont show the _build folder, it shows all others.

I fixed it by opening the file from the command line, and set a bookmark.

Thanks for the tip, works great!
