    <p>Many thanks Christian and James!</p>
    <p>Agreed re: markdown, it's hard not to love MD. Plus compatibility
      keeps growing.<br>
    </p>
    <p>I like the GitHub Pages publishing idea but as James says, only
      if it's for a public space/repo/etc.</p>
    <p>Appreciate the hugo/zola approach too (static site generation), I
      wouldn't have considered a less specific route.</p>
    <p>Will crack on with looking further into each, taking a few for a
      spin, and then making a call. :-)<br>
    </p>
    <p>Thanks again,<br>
      Luke<br>

      <p>G'day folks,</p>
      <p>This year's been a long road of final ground-works for us, and
        I'm working to get a few more long-term nails bedded down before
        it's 2024. Eliminating Atlassian from our vendor stack is one of
        them. <br>
      </p>
      <p>We left Jira a while back for GitHub Project/Issues (not ideal,
        but we're constantly refining it and do a lot on there already),
        though Confluence Cloud is simple, good looking, and as of very
        recently, somewhat stable (ie. less awful than it was long-term
        following the re-build) and has been our Docs go-to since day 1.</p>
      <p>I'd really like to shift this over to an open-source solution,
        and had been looking at Mkdocs over time though it's got that
        slightly rough open-source feeling to it, though brilliant, and
        recently stumbled upon a nice documentation site which was
        powered by Mkdocs-Material by Martin Donath & community.</p>

      <p>Python isn't our ideal; we're primarily PHP-driven at the
        moment while we keep evaluating a lower-level language to commit
        to fundamentally (Rust, Python, Ruby, Perl, etc). That's a
        slow-burn process for us, so at the moment Python would be a
        decent compromise - though PHP is our preference for a few
        reasons (namely for simplicity to internally deploy).</p>
      <p>Does anyone have experiences, check this, avoid that, sort of
        feedback that they're happy to share? We'd be incredibly
        grateful!</p>

      <p>Feels like yesterday (10~ years ago) I was leaving uni and
        joining web host #2 for $40k/year inc super... hard lessons must
        be learnt - don't tell them you're happy with the pay of your
        previous job! Now the kids are 6 & 2, and 2024's knocking on
        the door. Wild.</p>
