Besides docuwiki consider also Docusaurus (Markdown + React). > what functionality you would like to see For real use cases the source format should support: - inserting unique IDs to offer the context-sensitive functionality - ability to mark specific keywords as non-translatable In the case of localizing - ability to insert an alternative text for inserted images (accessibility) For tools developed in our company (non-NB modules), all documentation is written in XML (DocBook). Using XSLT you can get anything from it - either customize default outputs or create custom ones from the scratch (we use tailored outputs for the online portal or e-learning). But it requires custom development and maintenance (e.g. when rebranding). A similar concept offers DITA XML, which is rather topic-oriented (a set of topics is later composed into larger units). That DITA approach is similar to your goal: individual independent units get collected into the final collection. For generating conventional outputs like HTML or PDF there is https://www.dita-ot.org/ In sum, I can imagine if every unit has its DITA topic, it should be then easy to generate help for the complete set. And if you would manage to transform DITA to markdown, you could build in parallel Docusaurus help for online use.
