Slate is a static documentation generator that produces beautiful, three-column API documentation sites from Markdown files. Originally built with Middleman (Ruby), it was widely adopted but has since been removed from GitHub and exists only as a read-only archive.

Use cases

  • generate static API documentation from markdown
  • publish beautiful three-column API reference docs
  • self-host API docs for a REST API
  • document an API without running a server
  • migrate legacy Slate-based API docs to another tool

When to avoid

  • starting a new API documentation project, since the project is abandoned and no longer developed on GitHub
  • you need active maintenance, security updates, or community support
  • you prefer a tool with an active ecosystem like Docusaurus, Redoc, or Stoplight
