Currently animint manual is built by jekyll, which is a simple and light blog tool. However, it is perfect for static content, but in this case, animint is based on R markdown and contains interactive plots, for compiling R markdown, the requirements for jekyll and ruby versions are higher.
I propose to use bookdown to create animint manual. The bookdown package is an open-source R package that facilitates writing books and long-form articles/reports with R Markdown. It makes it easier and more effective to render Rmd to html.
It also offers several styles of html format with many functions, such as built-in search (which I wanted to add via jekyll in the first place).
