The tool used to generate DTS API docs is Sphinx, which is already in
use in DPDK. The same configuration is used to preserve style with one
DTS-specific configuration (so that the DPDK docs are unchanged) that
modifies how the sidebar displays the content.

Sphinx generates the documentation from Python docstrings. The docstring
format is the Google format [0] which requires the sphinx.ext.napoleon
extension. The other extension, sphinx.ext.intersphinx, enables linking
to object in external documentations, such as the Python documentation.

There are two requirements for building DTS docs:
* The same Python version as DTS or higher, because Sphinx imports the
  code.
* Also the same Python packages as DTS, for the same reason.

+Building DTS API docs
+---------------------
+
+To build DTS API docs, install the dependencies with Poetry, then enter its shell:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   poetry install --no-root --with docs
+   poetry shell
+
+The documentation is built using the standard DPDK build system.
+After executing the meson command and entering Poetry's shell, build the documentation with:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   ninja -C build dts-doc
+
+The output is generated in ``build/doc/api/dts/html``.
+
+.. Note::
+
+   Make sure to fix any Sphinx warnings when adding or updating docstrings,
+   and also run the ``devtools/dts-check-format.sh`` script and address any issues it finds.
