Gitbooks has terrible support and product is buggy alternatives?

6 pointsby dot1xover 4 years ago
I&#x27;ve decided to use Gitbooks for a project, but I have constant Github sync issues. I&#x27;ve been ignored by support for 1 week. Every time I manage to get in contact with somebody they keep repeating that &quot;well you initiated contact during the weekend so that&#x27;s why our response time is long&quot;. They seem to forget today is thursday, which is well into the week...<p>Anyway, I need to absolutely find an alternative as I don&#x27;t see any reason to use this garbage.<p>Is there anything out there that is a WORKING Gitbook essentially?

It’s also outrageously expensive if you are a small team. $40+ Per month is the lowest subscription. I now use Wiki.js which isn’t nearly as polished but is free and promising

Highly recommend Docusaurus, published to Netlify. We use it for the Redux family of libraries (Redux, React-Redux, Redux Toolkit), and have been very happy with it.

just run your own, it&#x27;s not that difficult. Things like <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docsify.js.org&#x2F;#&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docsify.js.org&#x2F;#&#x2F;</a> are very easy to use and you can host them on Github pages for free.

I&#x27;ve been using honkit, which is a gitbook fork. [1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;honkit&#x2F;honkit" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;honkit&#x2F;honkit</a><p>Docsify has a very nice UI, but never used it.

I&#x27;m a fan of Hugo and the Docsy theme
