• I don't always use LaTeX, but when I do, I compile to HTML (2013)

  You have also AsciiDoctor ( https://asciidoctor.org/ ) which is alive and well. I am using it for technical CS documentation internally, but only for single page documents. I did not try to deploy their whole multi-document setup called Antora ( https://antora.org/ ). - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Markdown, Asciidoc, or reStructuredText - a tale of docs-as-code

• Markdown, Asciidoc, or reStructuredText - a tale of docs-as-code

  Sphinx is incredibly powerful and can offer a table of contents, automatic links for functions, automatic code highlighting using Pygments, and other capabilities using built-in or third-party extensions. If you'd like to use (a flavor of) Markdown with Sphinx, you can do so using MyST-parser - a Sphinx and Docutils extension to parse MyST. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• What pager do you use?

  I access enough machines (some of which I don't admin, or are stripped down to minimal packages lists, so I can't install additional software) so sticking with less means I don't have to think about i. If I need, I'll put something like pygments in the pipeline to colorize things, and optionally use -R with less such as … | pygments | less -R. Source: over 1 year ago
