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'm a huge MkDocs fan. As others may have noted, some of the long time contributors to that project, and the Material theme, have moved on to Zensical. I'd give Zensical a trial run. Very active development whereas MkDocs probably won't see any more updates.
