Templating: Handlebars AsciiDoc

What it is

Antora is built for documentation that lives across multiple Git repositories — common in enterprise technical documentation. AsciiDoc-first, with strong cross-repo navigation and versioning.

Best for

  • Multi-repo enterprise documentation
  • AsciiDoc-based documentation projects
  • Versioned API documentation across many products

When not to pick it

Overkill for single-product documentation. Pick MkDocs, Docusaurus, or Starlight instead.

My take

Specific tool for a specific problem (multi-repo docs). If that is your problem, Antora is the right answer.
