+Sphinx documentation
+-----------------------
+
+Sphinx is used to build the documentation based on rST files and comments in the code. First,
+install dependencies (feel free to reuse the virtual environment from above):
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    python3 -m venv .env
+    source .env/bin/activate
+    pip install Sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme
+
+Now, once you have the virtual environment activated:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    cd docs
+    sphinx-build -E -W -b html . _build/html
+
+This will output the documentation to ``docs/_build/html``. Open the index.html in your browser to
+view them. It will also (due to -W) error out on any warning like Travis will. This is a good way to
+locally verify it will pass.
