JSON Schema for Humans vs Sphinx

JSON Schema for Humans generates static HTML or Markdown documentation from valid JSON Schema files. Inputs can be JSON or YAML, supplied to its command-line interface as a file, directory, glob pattern, or comma-separated list; Python methods are also available. Multiple templates produce different outputs. The default JavaScript template provides expandable sections, tabs for conditional subschemas, and anchor links. The js_offline template bundles CSS and JavaScript for offline viewing. Markdown output can be published without an HTTP server and is rendered by GitHub when browsing code. A techdocs template is described as optimized for TechDocs and MkDocs Material. References can point within a schema, to local files, or to URLs, including circular references, and the project lists JSON Schema Draft-07 support. Safe mode escapes HTML tags in descriptions by default, while configuration can allow HTML. Property names and size, property dependencies, and media are listed as unsupported. The Apache-2.0 licensed package documents installation with `pip install json-schema-for-humans`.

Sphinx is a free Python application that generates technical documentation from structured text. Authors can use reStructuredText or MyST Markdown; Markdown requires installing MyST-Parser separately. Built-in builders produce HTML, LaTeX for PDF, ePub, manual pages, Texinfo, and plain text. References can link sections, figures, tables, citations, glossaries, and code objects within one project or across projects. The autodoc extension imports documented modules and includes material from their docstrings. Themes and extensions, both built-in and third-party, add options such as diagrams, doctests, and API documentation. Other built-in extensions provide GitHub Pages publishing, Graphviz graphs, and intersphinx links. Sphinx also supports gettext-based translation and full-text search. It can be installed through Python and platform package managers, Docker, or from source, then deployed to services such as Read the Docs, GitHub Pages, GitLab Pages, Netlify, or self-hosted servers. Its code is released under the two-clause BSD license, and the project is community supported.
