CMake[1] and cppreference [2] websites do offer QCH help files for offline 
browsing in Qt Creator. Setting them up it's the step that probably not so many 
users are doing.

Would it be possible to have a Qt Webengine Lite, which would include only the 
functionality needed by QtHelp?

Alternatively one can have something like https://github.com/litehtml/, which 
seems to have more web support than QTextBrowser, but far away from what a real 
web browser can support.

Cheers,
Cristian.
