Does the de Rham complex induce a functorial soft resolution of the category of cochain complexes of sheaves of vector spaces on a smooth manifold?
I apologize in advance if this is pretty straightforward; I'm a differential geometer and physicist by training so my homological algebra and homotopy theory are a bit weak.
