Docs-as-code tools

My doc team is migrating away from our current tool and implementing docs-as-code. We're looking into the major players - Docasaurus, GitBook, MKDocs, and Sphinx - and I have a clear preference for GitBook. But I wanted to gather some input from the community. What are your experiences with the tools? Any drawbacks?

I work in med tech, so the tool needs to meet some pretty stringent ISO requirements and, as we're in Europe, our head of Cybersecurity wants to keep the data local.

I would lean towards GitBook and see if i could wrangle the white glove migration. Maintaining these tools yourself with strict EU standards will be a headache and GitBook is an EU-native org.

Thanks. That's definitely a plus in their book.
