I'm working on an opensource project on Github. I'd created some documents in Github's md format. However I want those documents available in three formats:
PDF: To be downloaded with project
HTML: To be hosted on my personal site.
Markdown (.md): For Github.
Obviously I'd not prefer to write them thrice. Is there any way I write it once anywhere (although MS Word preferred) and it could be converted to other two formats?
Consider Pandoc
I'd write in Markdown and convert to the others.
Another possibility is DITA. Its free reference implementation, the DITA Open Toolkit, lets you generate HTML and PDF out of the box, and can be customized to generate Markdown as well.
But, DITA might be a more sophisticated solution than you need, depending on your requirements for content reuse, the size of your docs, how frequently you update, whether you will be employing a technical writer to maintain and update your docs... It's a powerful solution better suited for a dedicated documentation effort than a one time ad-hoc situation.

Do you know any good tools to support the translation of .arb files?
It's a standard for Flutter and since Google Translator Toolkit will be sunset soon (https://support.google.com/translatortoolkit/answer/9462068) we're searching for a good solution to translate/gather our translations
Edit (June 2020): There's great new open source project called Arbify. This is a self-hosted tool to manage multiple translation projects focused on Flutter. You can edit arb files and fetch them via Dart package tool.
Aside from that some services like POEditor have announced basic support for ARB too.
At the moment the best support for arb files is on Localizely. However, this is a paid service and has strict limits on a free version. It allows to export arb translation files with plurals and placeholder support. It doesn't support genders, though.
There is also one simple web editor and one desktop editor (Babel) that support arb files.
Crowdin supports .arb:
https://support.crowdin.com/supported-formats/
It is also able to pull the data from a Git repo and send Pull Requests on GitHub.
However, when I used it in 2018 there was a problem of ##last_modified attribute being updated without any other changes to the translation files, causing lots of churn in PRs. By that time, they were reluctant to improve the situation (based on email conversation with their support), so we resorted to manual edits.
https://localise.biz/ allows 2000 translations. Which I assume are 1000 strings in 2 languages or ~666 strings in 3 languages and so on. Which is more than https://localizely.com/ 150 strings

Does anyone know of any JavaScript/CSS scripts that offer a good WYSIWYG editor, along with the ability to download inputted information to an RTF file?
The only one I've found so far is NicEdit, but I haven't been able the figure out how to convert the formatted text (which is in HTML format) to RTF and offer it for download. I've been able to store the formatted HTML in a JavaScript variable, but don't know how to proceed from there.
Do any of you know of an open source WYSIWYG text editor that offers users the ability to download their formatted text in RTF format?
In the end I decided to go for TinyMCE. It's pretty versatile and although downloading text was not a built-in function, it was easy to set it up myself just by passing the formatted HTML text through a PHP variable once a button was pushed for download.
From there, there are various php classes that can be used to convert HTML to RTF. Just updating this in case anyone else comes up with a similar problem in the future.

I have created one library, and now I want to have its documentation, so Is there any document generator available? If yes, What I have to keep in mind while generating documents.
http://www.doxygen.nl/
Doxygen is probably the most widely used option. Because it's not just for ObjC (doxygen supports many other languages), the development is lively and the community quite strong. HeaderDoc (now an open source project), by comparison appears to have largely stagnated. HeaderDoc only produces HTML output, while doxygen also produces PDF, LaTeX and many other output forms besides HTML. Even seems to recommend doxygen, with this guide to automatically producing documentation sets, compatible with 's help viewer, from within your build process.
It's worth noting that doxygen can read HeaderDoc-style comments, so you can write your documentation in HeaderDoc style and decide later whether to produce the final output using doxygen or HeaderDoc.

Can anyone recommend a really good online wysiwyg editor? I'm looking for the following features:
saving of document in a Word-compatible format (.doc, .docx, .rtf)
accurate cut/paste from Word
support of most Word features, including paragraph numbering
customizable. I need to add my own special handling for changes
Because the app will be used in a company intranet, it's not vital that it runs in all browsers.
have you tried office live or google docs?
OfficeLive
googledocs
Try Inetword
I found it is best for online Document editing, and does almost all functionality done by MS office.
You might wish to consider Native Documents (a commercial solution, new in 2018): https://www.nativedocuments.com which we have designed to be easy to embed. (Disclosure: I have an interest here)
saving of document in a Word-compatible format (.doc, .docx, .rtf)
Supports loading of doc and docx. (Not RTF yet). Save/export to docx or pdf.
support of most Word features, including paragraph numbering
High fidelity layout/rendering of Word documents is a key feature. Its good enough to be used for PDF Conversion.
customizable. I need to add my own special handling for changes
The web client is written in ReactJS, which you can customize.

What I want is lots of nodes which can expand making a mind map.
I'd ideally like to expand and collapse nodes. I would like to be able to navigate by either dragging around the page, or by following expanded nodes.
I have a colleague who needed that kind of functionalities to graph Maven dependencies between projects. He ended up using FreeMind to do the visualization. He just had to write an XML file conforming to the FreeMind format. I even think you can just use OPML as the file format and find a ready to use XSLT to transform it to the FreeMind format. Maybe FreeMind actually supports OPML directly (I havent used it for a long time).
Once you have your data in FreeMind, you can either export them, or use the FreeMind applet to display an interactive MindMap on your website.
Suggest mxGraph.
Suggest protovis, lovely javascript cross-platform visualisation library.
I think you are asking for a component that does what Visio can do, except that it can be displayed on a web page. Most likely you would have to create one from scratch, because mind mapping tools are always released as products per se and not customizable components. I suggest looking for a basic drawing/illustration component, and then putting your mind-mapping logic in it.
