Retype is a high-performance static site generator that turns plain Markdown files into polished documentation websites via a simple CLI. It requires no coding or design work, supports npm/Yarn/dotnet installation, and offers optional paid Pro features.

Use cases

• generate a documentation website from markdown files
• build a knowledge base from notes
• publish api docs as a static site
• create a personal blog or wiki from .md files
• host project docs on github pages or netlify
• convert an obsidian vault into a website

When to choose

• you want zero-config docs from markdown with a single command
• you need fast builds and built-in search, tabs, callouts, and cards
• you prefer owning plain markdown files with no vendor lock-in

When to avoid

• you need fully open-source tooling with no paid feature gates
• you require deep custom theming on the free tier
• you need a dynamic, server-rendered application rather than a static site
