    Just as all occurrences of "QObject" would link to https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qobject.html, so all occurrences of "std::chrono::duration" would link to https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/chrono/duration.html

        I'm against. Id rather see the qt docs pages go back to the way they looked when trolltek was still a thing: you know, higher contrast, less window dressing.

        I light my way forward with the fires of all the bridges I've burned behind me.

          If the doc style went back to what you like, would that make you for, against, or neutral towards the proposal?

            They are separate issues, but no. I dont think external links within the qt docs is a good idea, for some of the reasons stated in the JIRA ticket.

            I'd also be happier to see an easier process to download and locally host the API documentation. (I'm all about minimizing dependence on the web/cloud) When I've tried to build and host locally I always ended with many broken links, but haven't tried since around 5.3
