ProperDocs
Static site generator for project documentation, written in Markdown and configured with a YAML file, forked from MkDocs.
properdocs.org/repositorydocsplugins
ProperDocs is a static site generator for project documentation. Pages are written in Markdown, and a single properdocs.yml file sets the documentation structure, the theme and the plugin settings. The properdocs build command writes static HTML to a site folder, and any host that serves static files can serve it.
ProperDocs is a fork of MkDocs. It installs with pip, and the ProperDocs Team maintains it. Plugins and themes are listed in a catalog on GitHub.
The deployment guide covers GitHub Pages, Read the Docs and other static hosts.
