I'm in favor of encouraging low friction / easy doc contributions by using generally accepted simple formats (i.e. markdown). Also, if any change in doc framework or tooling would ease adoption of donation + prevent re-work, that'd be an obvious benefit to deciding on that prior. On Fri, Apr 24, 2

Thanks for coordinating this Josh. Having professional doc writers contributing regularly to the official docs will be an awesome improvement to the project. I am definitely looking forward to working with everyone on this! On Fri, Apr 24, 2020 at 12:28 PM Joshua McKenzie wrote: > > > > could

As a stopgap, Sphinx can generate docs based on markdown (and possibly even asciidoc but I haven't checked). Probably easiest to do the conversion to markdown incrementally that way, then we can flip everything over to Hugo. On Fri, Apr 24, 2020 at 9:17 AM Manish G wrote: > I would like to cont

I'd like to get the docs out of Sphinx. I hate it. The syntax is crap and almost nobody knows it. I'm fine with markdown (it makes it easy for most people) and have a personal preference for asciidoc, since it makes it easier to generate PDFs and is a bit richer / better for documentation. I'd
