Docusaurus
Open-source docs framework from Meta, the workhorse of OSS documentation sites.
React-based static docs with versioning, internationalization, MDX components, and a built-in blog, plus first-class Algolia DocSearch integration. A large plugin and theme ecosystem keeps most needs a config change away. The safe default for open-source projects that want docs-as-code without building a site from scratch.
