Couscous
PHP tool that generates a documentation website from Markdown files and publishes it on GitHub Pages.
Couscous builds its site from Markdown files kept in a repository next to the code, and the generated site is static. Templates use Twig.
The project is downloaded as a phar file. A preview command renders the site on the developer’s machine, and a deploy command publishes the site on the gh-pages branch, where GitHub Pages serves it. The homepage describes these steps.
