Vale.sh – A Linter for Prose
Have tried to use this a few times but it's a big lift. Like adding unit tests to an existing application, it's a good idea to start small. And vale doesn't make this super easy (at least I couldn't figure out an easy way to do this). If I could wave my wand, I'd want a way to:
* apply vale to just the doc I was working on
* have a minimal set of rules
* add to them over time
At $curjob, we have a detailed public list of rules of doc ( https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-site/blob/master/Do... ) and as our team expands, I'd love to have them be applied rigorously. vale seems like a good fit, but there's an activation energy that I haven't been able to get over yet.
I am not aware of any other cli tools similar to this, though, so totally admire the team behind it.

Mermaid Cheat Sheet
I actually have much more experience with plantuml (we actually have a plugin which generates diagrams for our jekyll/asciidoc docs site: https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-site/blob/master/si... ), but I have recently started using mermaid for a project and like it so far.

Automating screenshots for the Datasette documentation using shot-scraper
I had a colleague (thanks Sanjay!) make a similar tool at a hackfest (you can see the source code here: https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-site/blob/master/sr... ).
I've modified it a bit to take a URL, but haven't yet set it up to read a config file to make a large number of screenshots easy to do.
We do outline certain fields or other areas in the doc to highlight a point. That's caused some hesitation on my part. However, it looks like I could use imagemagick to automatically put a red box or similar on an image (with a `-draw` command).
We have a ton of screenshots (600+) throughout our doco, and a way to initialize our product to a known state, so the pieces are all there.
One of these days it'll be worthwhile to do this.

Open Source Authentication and Authorization
In my experience, businesses are especially concerned with authorization — enabling product sales to customers.
They would rather not deal with identity and authentication — usernames and passwords — at all. These are already quite nicely handled to various degrees by Cogntio, Auth0, Azure Active Directory, and others.
To address minimalist authorization needs, the portfolio of companies I worked with collaborated to create The Usher[1]. The Usher is an open source authorization server in NodeJS. Worth a peek if you, too, want to focus on authorization separate from authentication.
Disclosure: I am a contributor to The Usher.
