How to create user documentation?

Question

Hi, We are building a small app and would like to add the documentation to it.
I like odoo does its documentation, is this a module we could use? How would we duplicate the same structure? ( \https://www.odoo.com/documentation/user/11.0/ ).

Hi Robert,
You can create very similar documentation but it is not an app within or Odoo or some default Odoo app you can install. All the documentation at Odoo is built in a separate repository on Github at  https://github.com/odoo/documentation-user [1]
Every documentation page is actually an rst file which is converted into an HTML file with the Python library sphinx. You can find the technical explanation about how it works at  https://github.com/odoo/documentation-user/blob/12.0/README.rst
