Hey, co-founder of Fern (https://www.buildwithfern.com/) here.

I too am inspired by Stripe's API documentation. Specifically, I like that it:

1. shows the API reference alongside the requests and responses

2. gives code examples of how to use the client libraries (e.g. python, node.js, go, java)

3. is one, continuously scrolling page

We built Fern Docs so that for $150/month you can get Stripe-like documentation. You can get started for free. Pay only when you need a custom domain (e.g. your-site.com/docs).

Examples of docs built with Fern:

- https://docs.joincandidhealth.com/api-reference/encounters

- https://api-docs.codecombat.com/api-reference/classrooms

Get started in less than 5 minutes: https://github.com/fern-api/docs-starter
