How does it compare to other alternatives like vitepress, astro? Also, aren't react docs on nextJs?

  Yes, the React beta docs use Next.js.

    Can confirm that the React beta docs do not use Docusaurus, and it 100% makes sense to me. I've explained why here: https://twitter.com/sebastienlorber/status/1452722568390221825 https://twitter.com/sebastienlorber/status/14527225683902218... Note that we also want to explore if Docusaurus could run on top of Next.js, Gatsby, Remix, and eventually become framework-agnostic. The Docusaurus team is relatively small, and can't really compete with Vercel/Next.js on the static site generator infra, build performance etc... Until now we mostly focused on implementing a good set of flexible docs feature.

  Docusaurus is very similar to VitePress, VuePress, MkDocs, Nextra, Dokz, Docus... all those tools allow you to focus on content. I believe we have much more features and more flexibility to customize your site in Docusaurus, but other tools are great too if you look for something simpler. Our showcase (and launch blog post) references great looking Docusaurus websites that would be hard (if not impossible) to build with the other tools. Afaik Astro has a docs starter template but it's more a boilerplate that you have to maintain after initialization, so not really comparable with the tools above.
