Moving the reference documentation annotations to Swift syntax is a good idea given most ObjC developers are familiar with Swift but not all Swift developers are familiar with ObjC. |

Right now, I am writing an app in Swift with Firebase and am finding the documentation hard to work with. First off, all of the documentation is for Objective C so I always need to try to translate it upon reading to its Swift equivalent:
Because this is really hard to use, I frequently make use of the iOS - Swift online documentation. Since I often work offline though, I am usually stuck with the not-very-helpful Objective C quick help documentation. For certain libraries with similar problems, I use their supported documentation on Dash for offline usage.
I would like to propose the creation of a Dash docset for Firebase so people can view the documentation offline. While I primarily care about Swift since it is the language I am writing in, Firebase could potentially provide all documentation of its documentation for all of its supported platforms through Dash.
Also, on a side note, while I am not sure if it is even possible, it would be great to have native Swift documentation for Firebase. I rely on the quick help documentation often and having it readable to Swift developers would be a big bonus.
