How is Doctave different?
Fully-featured documentation platform
Swagger UI is the original OpenAPI documentation solution that paved the way for other tools.
Doctave is a more modern approach to OpenAPI documentation, giving you a experience expected by today's developers.
Doctave also supports Markdown documentation, which means you don't need to wrangle multiple tools for your docs — Doctave is all you need.
Write, publish, collaborate
Everything you need for world-class docs
Markdown Powered
Doctave supports standard CommonMark Markdown.
OpenAPI Support
Document your APIs and guides in a single place. Doctave supports OpenAPI 3.0 out of the box.
Analytics
Privacy-friendly cookieless analytics to track readership over time.
Reader Feedback
Get realtime feedback from your readers and find opportunities to improve your docs.
CI/CD Integration
Publish your documentation automatically from your CI/CD pipeline.
Build Previews
Every documentation change gets its own isolated shareable environment.
Full-stack solution
When should you use
Doctave?
If you want a fully-featured documentation platform, Doctave is a great choice.
You can document your API with OpenAPI specifications in the same tool as your Markdown docs.
Doctave makes collaboration a breeze by integrating with your software engineering workflow, and your readers will love your modern documentation site.
Open-source option
When should you use
Swagger UI?
Swagger UI can be embedded into other projects, which makes it a good option when you have an existing site and want to extend it with OpenAPI specifications.
It also has backwards compatibility with OpenAPI 2.0, unlike Doctave.
