How to choose

Start with the job you need done: a general website built from Markdown and templates, a documentation site for an open source project, or documentation for UI components. Hugo is a Go static site generator for general sites, Docusaurus is React-based and aimed at project docs, and Storybook documents and tests UI components in isolation. After that, consider whether your team is more at home with Go or React.
