The ones I've tried or at least looked at had pretty good docs up to a limit. For simple things most of them had pretty good docs. For advanced features it was a hit-or-miss with the docs. It may say how to do the things I wanted or it may not. Or it said it in such a way it was hard for me to find the info. In some cases it might have been impossible without coding a plug-in myself but then it was a bit unclear if it was impossible or just no clearly documented.

I do see many static site generators as something that requires that you are a developer. At least you must understand html and templates (and folders and markdown) but often you end up doing things that are basically just programming.
