Summary:

1. Write some docs in a text editor.

2. Using git, send your new docs to GitHub.

3. Follow some steps on GitHub to finish adding your new docs to the site.

4. A process runs which takes your changes, builds everything into a website (using the static site generator), and deploys it to a server.

This is not about websites. It's about building manuals.

The result could be a book, an ePub, a PDF, or -- almost incidentally -- a website.
