Description

Description

I think it would be a good idea if developers can customize the look and feel of the auto-generated documentation easily by applying different themes. One way is to leverage Google Material Design or Twitter Bootstrap themes as both have a very mature ecosystem (e.g. free, paid themes, web designers who are familiar with these frameworks)

I suggest we start with documentations generated by the html2 generator.

Start by locating the html2 generator and its generated documentation templates, then review how themes could be applied using Bootstrap or another supported theme system. Done means html2 documentation has an easily selectable, customizable visual theme without disrupting existing generated output.
