Very nice! Nitpick, s/intimdating/intimidating/ on the landing page
I really like documentation sites like this. But viewing this on an iPad Pro with Safari makes it impossible once you select a page such as Syscalls then command write. The menu bar with synopsis, description, etc, covers up about a third of the left side of the screen and there aren't enough context clues to get anything out. Is there a way after selecting a page and then a topic that I can hide the sliding menu window?

I do like what you have.

Superb to you, ugly to me. You know, a bit opiniated term. s/superb/new render/
Sorry, but what's superb about it? It's man pages with a fancy layer of paint. It's design for design's sake, with no real improvement over the naked product.

I mean, it looks good, but I'd never use it over man or its HTML counterparts.

Design should support utility, not be the main course.

That's what the sane web is about, the HTML document semantics being split from presentation semantics (most is in css) "as much as possible".
I have to squeeze my eyes to see the difference between ( and [ in the code examples. Everything looks like a square bracket. See the example at the bottom: https://dashdash.io/3/setbuf
I like the style, but it's missing pages like `flock(2)` and the font makes parentheses and brackets look too similar.
