| Install complexity | EASY | Moderate: Node.js >=20, project files, build and hosting workflow | Easy with a supported package manager; Homebrew must already be installed for this command. Official binaries, Windows, Linux, and source options are documented. |

| Best use | Ideal for a solo developer or small team that wants API collections and tests beside the code with Git review. Use it for repeatable REST, GraphQL, gRPC, and WebSocket checks—not live cloud collaboration or load testing. | Best for a developer or small team maintaining a product or library guide and comfortable with files and Git. It organizes scattered instructions into pages with clear locale and version choices. It does not write or translate your content, and may be excessive for a single page or a team needing direct collaborative editing. | For developers and small teams that want architecture and data-flow diagrams close to the repository and reviewable as text. Use it when relationships matter more than pixel-perfect placement; not for free-form marketing design or exact manual positioning. |
