Choose document generator system

phretor opened this issue · 4 comments

I'm asking to RFQuack's friends to help me choose the doc-generation system. Here are the options I know:

  • GitBook

    • PROs: easy to get started with, Markdown based
    • CONs: kinda proprietary
  • Docusaurus:

    • PROs: fully open source, Markdown based, simple
    • CONs: none known to me
  • MkDocs

    • PROs: Markdown based, active community, many themes
    • CONs: maybe old?
  • Sphinx:

    • PROs: well supported, mature product
    • CONs: old, Python centric

I've personally used Hugo and found it pretty straight forward. It's based on Go and uses Go Templating.

Hugo and Astro are static site generators. I was looking for doc-specific generators.

MkDocs is the chosen one.
