Reviewer scorecard

Builder
80/100 · ship

React-based, versioning, and i18n built in. The most flexible open-source documentation framework.

80/100 · ship

The local server mode is the killer feature — run any local model with an OpenAI-compatible API. Drop it into any project that uses the OpenAI SDK.

Skeptic
80/100 · ship

Free, open source, and battle-tested by thousands of projects. The default choice for OSS documentation.

80/100 · ship

Best UX for local models by far. The model browser with VRAM requirements shown upfront saves trial-and-error. Hardware optimization actually works.

Creator
45/100 · skip

Functional but not beautiful by default. Mintlify produces better-looking docs with less effort.

80/100 · ship

The UI is gorgeous — it feels like a native Mac app. Browse models, download, chat. No terminal needed. If Ollama is for developers, LM Studio is for everyone else.
