Description

documentation enhancement question

Hi everyone,

I’d like to propose an enhancement to our documentation publishing workflow using GitHub Actions.

The main goal is to keep our documentation repository clean and focused solely on the Markdown files, while ensuring that any updates to the documentation automatically trigger an update to our site.

This approach works seamlessly with various static site generators, whether we decide to use MkDocs, VuePress or any other tool. By leveraging GitHub Actions, we can automatically rebuild and deploy the site with GitHub Pages every time a change is made. This means that contributors can simply make modifications to the Markdown files, and once their pull request is merged, the site will automatically update to reflect those changes.

If anyone has experience with this type of setup, I’d appreciate your input!

Thanks 🙏
