This lists the docs that use FileScraper and instructions for building some of them.
Most scrapers fetch their documents themselves — see download_source in
lib/docs/core/scrapers/file_scraper.rb. The sections below cover the ones that
still need the documents to be built or assembled by hand.
If you open a PR to update one of these docs, please add/fix the instructions.

Download the tarball of Ruby from https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/, extract it, run
./configure && make html in your terminal (while your are in the ruby directory) and move
.ext/html to path/to/devdocs/docs/ruby~$VERSION/.
Or run the following commands in your terminal:
curl https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/$VERSION/ruby-$RELEASE.tar.gz > ruby.tar; \
tar -xf ruby.tar; cd ruby-$RELEASE; ./configure && make html; mv .ext/html path/to/devdocs/docs/ruby~$VERSIONTo generate the htmls file you have to run make command but it does not install Ruby in your system, only generates html files so you have not
to worry about cleaning or removing a new Ruby installation.
