Webpack: New Documentation Website

Webpack currently lacks a modern, automated documentation site. Existing documentation is manually maintained, lacks API reference generation, and has no automated pipeline to stay in sync with webpack's source code. This project aims to build a fully automated documentation system for webpack using TypeDoc and @node-core/doc-kit. The pipeline extracts API documentation directly from webpack's types.d.ts, generates structured markdown, and renders a complete website - including API reference, guides, loaders, plugins, and core pages like Home and Download. Key deliverables: • A complete TypeDoc theme producing doc-kit-compatible markdown. • Webpack-branded site using doc-kit's theming system (#theme/* components) that aligns webpack's documentation with the OpenJS Foundation's design standards. • Multi-version documentation support (v5, v6 and beyond). • Fully automated CI/CD pipeline that syncs with webpack releases. The overarching goal is zero manual documentation maintenance - every webpack release automatically triggers doc regeneration and deployment, keeping the documentation accurate and fresh without human intervention.
