My docs-as-code toolchainI use a set of open-source and well document tools to create and manage documentation at an organizational level.
**Documentation generators:**
* [Sphinx](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/) for complex documentation.
* [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) and [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) for simpler or one off documents.
* [MikTex](https://miktex.org/) to create [LaTex](https://www.latex-project.org/) PDFs from Sphinx or Pandoc.
**Documentation lifecycle tools:**
* [Git](https://git-scm.com/) as a version control system.
* [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/) or [GitHub](https://github.com/) as a GUI cloud based storage, collaboration, and workflow tool.
**Automatic distribution:** [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/) or [GitHub](https://github.com/) as a DevOps platform to enable automatic distribution of documentation via CI/CD.
**Data analysis and manipulation:**
* [Pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/) for data manipulation.
* [Matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/) to automate graphs from raw data.
* [Regex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression) for grammatical analysis.
**Graphic design:**
* [GIMP](https://www.gimp.org/) for image manipulation.
* [Inkscape](https://inkscape.org/) for creating vector images.
