I think this would be a good time to discuss what software we should use to
generate our microsite at https://pekko.apache.org/

Suggestions that have already been made

* Paradox: https://github.com/lightbend/paradox (we use this currently for
docs and there is a current setup for it, see previously mentioned PR)
* sbt-microsites: https://github.com/47degrees/sbt-microsites (uses Jekyll
under the hood but wraps it in sbt which is the same build tool that is
used for all of the other Pekko projects)
* https://github.com/planet42/Laika: Completely new design for microsites,
used somewhat in Scala projects. Also works with sbt
* https://infra.apache.org/asf-pelican.html Used by Apache projects

I am personally leaning towards either Paradox or sbt-microsites. My
personal view on this is that while there are other technologies like
pelican which have historically been used with Apache, to me keeping the
number of tech stacks/build tools in the Pekko ecosystem has higher
priority and both of these projects use the exact same build tool that
Pekko libraries do.

Ontop of this sbt-paradox is currently being used to generate our docs for
our various modules, although it does appear to be more catered for doc
generated than microsites (I don't know how significant the difference is
between the two).
