What I'm saying is that the "offline" md browser we have (you can see it in the clientcide library for example) we fetch the md content w/ ajax. In the last year or so, Firefox and Safari and others look at an ajax request to file:// as a security risk, so they don't allow it. So to use this you need a server.
But really, the docs already ARE available for offline browsing. The markdown files are perfectly readable...
