[](https://github.com/docat-org/docat/actions) [](https://gitter.im/docat-docs-hosting/community?utmsource=badge&utmmedium=badge&utmcampaign=pr-badge) Why DOCAT?
When generating static documentation using mkdocs, sphinx, ... hosting just one version of the docs might not be enough. Many users might still use older versions and might need to read those versions of the documentation.
Docat solves this problem by providing a simple tool that hosts multiple documentation projects with multiple versions.
The main design decision with docat was to keep the tool as simple as possible.* Getting started
