We use GitBook at Garden (docs.garden.io).

It's zero effort which is important for a small team like ours. Allows us to focus on the content as opposed to bikeshedding design.

Overall I'm happy with the look and feel of things and the support is typically good.

That being said, they recently shipped changes that essentially made the docs site impossibly slow for a few days. They've been working on fixing that and it's better, but not as snappy as before. I also preferred the previous look (it's very similar but the new one is a bit more clunky imo).

We do have a lot of long code examples (YAML reference docs) which I think may contribute to the "sluggishness".

But overall I'd recommend if you want to minimise effort and maintenance. In any case it's easy to give it a spin and see if it works for you.
