Stoplight feels too heavy for simple API docs

If you want something lighter than Stoplight for simple API docs, good options are:
- Redoc — clean, fast, great for OpenAPI specs
- Swagger UI — simple, familiar, widely used
- Mintlify — polished docs, a bit more opinionated
- GitBook — good for broader docs, not just APIs
- Docusaurus + OpenAPI plugin — flexible if you want docs in your repo
If you’re mainly documenting an OpenAPI file and want the least overhead, Redoc is probably the best fit.
If you want, I can recommend one based on:
- static docs vs hosted platform
- OpenAPI-only vs broader product docs
- team size / workflow
