Designing MkDocs
summary
A minimalist documentation generator that builds static sites from Markdown, written in Python and driven by a single YAML config. It includes a live-reloading dev server, navigation ordering and prev/next links, Jinja2 themes and simple theme overrides, and direct GitHub Pages deployment. The demo shows mkdocs creating a site folder and serving it, so it works end-to-end; missing items include the ref-style interlinking, theme documentation, and polished docs for a 1.0 release.
