Description

JavaScript version of widely used doc tool that sounds better suited to large projects than JSDoc.

"Consumes standard JSDoc comments and tags."

https://hacks.mozilla.org/2017/07/introducing-sphinx-js-a-better-way-to-document-large-javascript-projects/

Could be a nice upgrade when we have cycles.

Maybe even start with a smaller project like gltf-pipeline.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Sphinx-js proposal and comparing it with the project's current JSDoc-based documentation approach. Evaluate whether Sphinx-js fits Cesium or a smaller project such as gltf-pipeline, and document the recommendation and migration scope.
