So far it's been plain sailing, I'm already familiar with Yard-style docs and getting everything up and running from the spec/dummy app was really straightforward.
The library I maintain currently uses a home-rolled docs page (https://dfe-digital.github.io/govuk-components/) that needs to be refreshed manually. It's been an 'ok' approach until now but as it's matured we need something that's automated and easier to maintain.
