We should implement doc8 - or something similar - as our go-to linter for reStructuredText (RST) documentation. This will ensure our RST files adhere to style and syntax guidelines, leading to more readable and maintainable documentation.
Background and Motivation
Our project's documentation should grow significantly and has a risk of becoming difficult to maintain. Inconsistencies in style and formatting across different sections have been noted already. Utilizing doc8 would enable us to enforce a consistent style, making our documentation easier to read, maintain, and contribute to. Additionally, doc8's ability to catch common errors before they make it to production can save time in the review process and improve the overall quality of our documentation.
Alternative Solutions
Manually reviewing RST files for style and syntax errors. This approach is time-consuming and error-prone.
Environment
This request pertains to all repositories containing RST documentation
