Docbox is an open-source REST API documentation system that turns structured Markdown files into a friendly two-column layout with navigation, permalinks, and examples. It is a React application built on the remark Markdown parser, with server-side rendering and a test suite that validates documentation content.
Use cases
- generate documentation for a REST API from markdown files
- create a two-column API docs site with navigation and examples
- build static API documentation that is SEO-indexable
- enforce documentation standards with automated tests
- write API docs without presentational code
When to choose
- you want to document a REST API using plain Markdown files
- you prefer a React-based static documentation site with server rendering
- you want automated checks for broken links and invalid examples in docs
When to avoid
- you need docs for non-API projects like user guides or books
- you want a docs generator with a large plugin ecosystem or active development
- you prefer writing docs in formats other than Markdown
