Docutils is a system for processing plaintext documentation into useful formats, such as HTML, XML, and LaTeX. It supports multiple types of input, such as standalone files (implemented), inline documentation from Python modules and packages (under development), PEPs (Python Enhancement Proposals) (implemented), and others as discovered. The Docutils distribution consists of: • a library (the “docutils” package), which can be used by client code; • several front-end tools (such as rst2html.py, which converts reStructuredText input into HTML output); • a test suite; and • extensive documentation. For an overview of the Docutils project implementation, see PEP 258, “Docutils Design Specification”. Docutils is implemented in Python.
