Have a look at the GNU Texinfo manual

https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/

at the moment I use GNU Emacs and Plan 9 User Space with that, oh, and Git.

There's an article on osnews saying content farms are writing for search engine optimization leading to bots training bots and the human touch in writing is becoming unsustainable financially. I was concerned recommending a search on the words "texinfo manual" might not get you to the source text.
