Feature Request: Support for Customizable Output Formats

Feature Request

Summary

I would like to suggest adding the ability to customize the output formats of the generated documentation and CI files. Currently, the tool generates files in a fixed structure, which is great for standardization, but it would be beneficial to allow users to specify output formats that better suit their project's needs.

Motivation

This feature would enhance flexibility, enabling users to incorporate specific styles, templates or include/exclude certain sections based on their requirements. Projects can vary significantly in structure and formatting preferences, and accommodating this could lead to wider adoption of the tool.

Examples

  • Adding configuration options in defaults/main.yml for specifying output formats (e.g., Markdown, HTML, or even custom) for generated files.
  • Users could define specific templates that the output should adhere to, enhancing readability and consistency with their existing documentation.

Additional Context

The existing setup is great, but having more control over output types could make the tool much more powerful and user-friendly. This can be especially helpful in organizations with established documentation standards.
