Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • Docusaurus

    Easy to maintain open source documentation websites.

  • Since our docs are in Docusaurus, I could have left the tables in HTML, but once they were in HTML the move to Markdown is pretty well supported by various free tools.

  • zeebe

    Distributed Workflow Engine for Microservices Orchestration

  • You can Ctrl + F (or Command + F) your way through the file, but you have to know what you are looking for.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • yaml-to-table

    Convert YAML file to text/html table for documentation

  • From there, I took the lazy(ish) approach and used https://github.com/ishswar/yaml-to-table, which didn't work without some changes. Instead of copying the descriptions, it added ipsum... ugh.
