I have to learn Sphinx for a Python project, and I’m wondering if it can be also useful for Julia. The [Julia support for Sphinx](https://github.com/bastikr/sphinx-julia) seems to be not very up-to-date, although I recognize that sometimes old code is still very usable. What’s your experience? (I know that Documenter.jl is the preferred way to document Julia code if other languages are not in the picture.)

There is also [Franklin.jl](https://franklinjl.org/) for Julia.
