antora VS next.js

Unlike docToolchain or Asciidoctor, Antora is a true framework for Asciidoc that can store, retrieve, and aggregate all Asciidoc content from multiple git repositories. Antora’s page referencing system isn’t coupled to filesystem paths or URLs. You are able to cross reference pages across a local machine, a staging environment, and a production environment. To generate a site with Antora, you need the Antora CLI and Antora site generator.

Using Markdoc with Next.js

Released in 2022, Markdoc is a relatively new Markdown-based authoring framework. The Markdoc project is open-source and it powers Stripe's documentation. Their website has a live edit button which makes the website a playground for you to give Markdoc a try. Documentations created with Markdoc will automatically render with your React app and using @markdoc/next.js for your Next.js app.

A couple of weeks ago, we open-sourced Markdoc, the authoring tool powering the Stripe docs. To accompany the launch, we published a blog post showing how to get started using Markdoc with Next.js, using the @markdoc/next.js plugin. In this blog post, I’ll show you how to create your own plugin, using the one I wrote for Parcel, as an example, so that you can use Markdoc with it.
