-    """A semi-implicit integrator using symplectic Euler that operates
-    on reduced (also called generalized) coordinates to simulate articulated rigid body dynamics
-    based on Featherstone's composite rigid body algorithm (CRBA).
-
-    See: Featherstone, Roy. Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms. Springer US, 2014.
-
-    Instead of maximal coordinates :attr:`State.body_q` (rigid body positions) and :attr:`State.body_qd`
-    (rigid body velocities) as is the case :class:`SemiImplicitIntegrator`, :class:`FeatherstoneIntegrator`
-    uses :attr:`State.joint_q` and :attr:`State.joint_qd` to represent the positions and velocities of
-    joints without allowing any redundant degrees of freedom.
-
-    After constructing :class:`Model` and :class:`State` objects this time-integrator
-    may be used to advance the simulation state forward in time.
-
-    Note:
-        Unlike :class:`SemiImplicitIntegrator` and :class:`XPBDIntegrator`, :class:`FeatherstoneIntegrator` does not simulate rigid bodies with nonzero mass as floating bodies if they are not connected through any joints. Floating-base systems require an explicit free joint with which the body is connected to the world, see :meth:`ModelBuilder.add_joint_free`.
-
-    Semi-implicit time integration is a variational integrator that
-    preserves energy, however it not unconditionally stable, and requires a time-step
-    small enough to support the required stiffness and damping forces.

-    Example
-    -------
-
-    .. code-block:: python
-
-        integrator = wp.FeatherstoneIntegrator(model)

-        # simulation loop
-        for i in range(100):
-            state = integrator.simulate(model, state_in, state_out, dt)
-
-    Note:
-        The :class:`FeatherstoneIntegrator` requires the :class:`Model` to be passed in as a constructor argument.

+class FeatherstoneIntegrator(Integrator):
+    """A semi-implicit integrator using symplectic Euler that operates
+    on reduced (also called generalized) coordinates to simulate articulated rigid body dynamics
+    based on Featherstone's composite rigid body algorithm (CRBA).
+
+    See: Featherstone, Roy. Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms. Springer US, 2014.
+
+    Instead of maximal coordinates :attr:`State.body_q` (rigid body positions) and :attr:`State.body_qd`
+    (rigid body velocities) as is the case :class:`SemiImplicitIntegrator`, :class:`FeatherstoneIntegrator`
+    uses :attr:`State.joint_q` and :attr:`State.joint_qd` to represent the positions and velocities of
+    joints without allowing any redundant degrees of freedom.
+
+    After constructing :class:`Model` and :class:`State` objects this time-integrator
+    may be used to advance the simulation state forward in time.
+
+    Note:
+        Unlike :class:`SemiImplicitIntegrator` and :class:`XPBDIntegrator`, :class:`FeatherstoneIntegrator` does not simulate rigid bodies with nonzero mass as floating bodies if they are not connected through any joints. Floating-base systems require an explicit free joint with which the body is connected to the world, see :meth:`ModelBuilder.add_joint_free`.
+
+    Semi-implicit time integration is a variational integrator that
+    preserves energy, however it not unconditionally stable, and requires a time-step
+    small enough to support the required stiffness and damping forces.
+
+    See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-implicit_Euler_method
