In their own words
Dokiel
Dokiel is a free authoring tool for technical documentation and training media. It can produce user guides, tutorials, installation guides, specifications, reference websites, e-learning modules and self-assessments. Authors organize content into reusable pieces such as concepts, operating processes, interactive screens and synoptic trees. A single source can be published as PDF, web content or SCORM, and updates to reused pieces propagate to documents that use them. Variables, conditions, profiling and skins let teams adapt content and visual identity. Dokiel supports writing, review and validation in a client-server environment, and uses XML standards to store and exchange content. It can run on an organization's infrastructure or be hosted by a service provider. Options include the Dokiel desktop application, SCENARIchain or the MyScenari desktop application and service. MyScenari online production is available to Scenari association members, and it permits only Opale, Dokiel and OptimOffice document models.
Oxygen XML Editor
Oxygen XML Editor is a desktop XML authoring and development tool for users from beginners to experts. XML files can be edited in Text, Grid and Author modes, while as-you-type validation and context-sensitive editing help keep XML, JSON and HTML documents valid. Ready-to-use editing and publishing support covers DITA, DocBook, XHTML and TEI. Publishing scenarios can produce PDF, ePUB, HTML and other formats from one source. The editor integrates with Microsoft SharePoint and WebDAV-enabled content management systems, and its Apache Subversion client supports repository browsing, commits, updates and revision history. It is available for Windows, macOS and Linux, and as an Eclipse plugin. A free 30-day evaluation requires a trial license key; there is no free plan. Annual subscriptions are $34 a year for Professional and $53 a year for Enterprise (AI-ready). Enterprise adds support for IBM DB2, Oracle 10.2 and Microsoft SQL Server; Professional excludes commercial database support. On Linux, the bundled Java requires X.org, and Wayland is unsupported.
