Daux.io vs rustdoc

Both stand on documentation generators. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.

rustdoc provides a free, Rust-focused path from source or Markdown to browsable documentation, with Cargo integration and testable examples. Its standalone-Markdown limitation and Windows build-tool requirement matter when planning installation or workflows.
