Description
This PR adds reasonably lightweight doc pages to
jbpy. Because of a desire that they be low maintenance, I wanted to try something other than sphinx and landed on zensical with embedded pdoc (not pdoc3; be wary of the drama) for the auto-API documentation (see their docs for the example I used).Originally, I tried using only pdoc, which worked ok, except I wanted to have something at least somewhat extensible (e.g. for having a page on CLI tools, etc.) and found pdoc limited in that respect.
Note that the rendering of much of the API is still a bit wonky. I chalk much of that up to the haphazard docstrings currently throughout
jbpy. I think a good next step would be to use numpydoc lint and clean those up.Demo
RTD is currently serving this branch from my fork to test the rendering and RTD configuration:
