Description

In order to improve our veda-docs site and maintenance of our docs, we should explore alternatives to Quarto.

Acceptance Criteria

  • assess if an alternative to Quarto (MKdocs, Sphinx, Jekyll site, etc.) is more appropriate for the veda-docs site - ADR required (in veda-architecture)
  • define evaluation criteria (Ease of contribution via GitHub, native support for Jupyter notebooks, theming, navigation, extensibility)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the current veda-docs site and its Quarto setup. Compare Quarto with the named alternatives using the criteria in the issue, including GitHub contribution, Jupyter notebook support, theming, navigation, and extensibility. Done means the criteria are defined and an ADR in veda-architecture records the evaluation and recommendation.
