Dev Knowledge Base (Programming Documentation Dataset)

A large-scale, structured dataset of programming documentation collected from official sources across languages, frameworks, tools, and AI ecosystems.

Overview

This dataset contains cleaned and structured documentation content scraped from official developer docs across multiple domains such as:

• Programming languages
• Frameworks (frontend, backend)
• DevOps & infrastructure tools
• Databases
• Machine learning & AI libraries

All content is chunked (~800 characters) and optimized for:

• Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
• Developer copilots
• Code assistants
• Semantic search

---

Dataset Structure

Each row represents a chunk of documentation.

Column	Description
title	Page title or endpoint
source	Source name (e.g., react, python, fastapi)
url	Original documentation URL
category	Type (language, framework, database, etc.)
language	Programming language
content	Cleaned text chunk
chunk_id	Chunk index within page
chunk_length	Character length
last_updated	Timestamp

How to Use (Hugging Face)

Install

pip install datasets

Load Dataset

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("nuhmanpk/dev-knowledge-base")

print(dataset["train"][0])

---

Example Use Cases

1. Semantic Search

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
import numpy as np

model = SentenceTransformer("all-MiniLM-L6-v2")

docs = [x["content"] for x in dataset["train"][:1000]]
embeddings = model.encode(docs)

query = "how to build api with fastapi"
q_emb = model.encode([query])

scores = np.dot(embeddings, q_emb.T).squeeze()
print(docs[scores.argmax()])

---

2. RAG Pipeline

User Query → Embed → Vector DB → Retrieve → LLM → Answer

Use with:

• FAISS
• Qdrant
• Pinecone

---

3. Fine-tuning

Convert to instruction format:

{
  "instruction": "Explain JWT authentication",
  "input": "",
  "output": "<documentation chunk>"
}

---

4. Developer Chatbot

Build:

• AI coding assistant
• StackOverflow-style search
• Internal dev knowledge system

---

Data Processing Pipeline

• Async crawling with rate limiting
• HTML parsing (BeautifulSoup)
• Navigation/content filtering
• Chunking (~800 chars)
• Cleaning & binary removal

Crawler implementation:

---

Limitations

• Some duplicate content may exist
• Chunk-level context only (not full pages)
• No semantic labeling yet
• Some sources larger than others

---

Future Improvements

• Deduplication
• Better chunking (semantic splitting)
• Q/A generation
• Code extraction
• Metadata enrichment

Quick Example

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("nuhmanpk/dev-knowledge-base")

for row in ds["train"].select(range(3)):
    print(row["source"], "→", row["content"][:150])

Summary

A large, structured, and practical dataset for building developer-focused AI systems from code assistants to full RAG pipelines.
