One thing where Info is on-topic here are Emacs integrations.

I remember how useful it was when I had texinfo links directly
available in Emacs:
https://www.draketo.de/light/english/free-software/read-your-python-module-documentation-emacs

This is something that would be really nice to have as default for most
GNU packages in most programming modes.

Do you know other info-to-programming-mode integrations?

Best wishes,
Arne
