Examples of Awesome Docs:
Adyen - A clean developer portal and stylish API explorer.
Apiary - A nice example of interactive documentation.
Auth0 - Really good API documentation.
Cockroach Labs - Fun, clean and well-designed.
Digital Ocean - These docs are great. Full of examples and easy/enjoyable to navigate.
Docker - Not just bigging them up because my boss was a contributor. These are really nice docs - very cool day and night switch to change between dark and light themes.
Docker API - I really like the three-panelled Docker API docs which have been produced using ReDoc.
Grafana - Unusual dark theme but really like the design and its in keeping with their brand.
Lateral.io - A great example of API docs created with API Blueprint renderer Agilo.
Lightrail Really nice split screen with interactive section that can switch between example and console views.
Luxbar This docs page demos the flexibility of the product (a CSS navigation bar) as you click around and change the colours, positioning, alignment etc. Very clever.
Mailchimp - Aspects of this site are so nicely designed it makes me a bit jealous. The API reference guide in particular.
Mapbox - Very clean docs with nice use of colour.
Nest - Very cool interactive API reference from Nest Labs (part of Google).
Rot.js Not necessarily the prettiest but really like the interactive code examples which can be changed. The animated side menu is always pretty cool.
Shopify Developers - Easy to navigate, in-line glossary pop-ups, search and discoverability as a core site feature, separation of content concerns (API and Knowledgbase are not merged).
Skyscanner - Another nice set of API docs produced with Slate.
Slack - Colourful and fun with the Slack brand of humour but well-designed like the product.
Stripe - Stripe go a great job of providing copy-paste ready sample calls in their API reference guide.
Twilio - Twilio Docs have a really distinctive style with bold headings and colours to denote each section (green for API/SDKs, blue for Quickstart, yellow for tutorials) to make navigation easy.
Vue.js - Simple, clean and easy to navigate. Has a nice search feature which splits the search results.
