Sphinx makes it easy to create intelligent and beautiful documentation.
Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its strengths come from the power and straightforwardness of reStructuredText and its parsing and translating suite, the Docutils.
Features
Output formats: HTML, PDF, plain text, EPUB, TeX, manual pages, and more
Extensive cross-references: semantic markup and automatic links for functions, classes, glossary terms and similar pieces of information
Hierarchical structure: easy definition of a document tree, with automatic links to siblings, parents and children
Automatic indices: general index as well as a module index
Code highlighting: automatic highlighting using the Pygments highlighter
Templating: Flexible HTML output using the Jinja 2 templating engine
Extension ecosystem: Many extensions are available, for example for automatic function documentation or working with Jupyter notebooks.
Language Support: Python, C, C++, JavaScript, mathematics, and many other languages through extensions.
For more information, refer to the documentation.
