Highlights
Built for developers who care about their users' experience.
Clone the repo, write your Markdown, deploy. No complex setup, no build pipeline to configure. Your documentation is live before your coffee gets cold.
Tailwind CSS design tokens let you match your documentation to your product identity with a few CSS variable changes.
Drop in React, Vue, or Svelte components directly in your Markdown. Build interactive examples, live demos, and API playgrounds.
From a single getting-started guide to hundreds of pages — the architecture scales with your project. Multi-collection docs, versioning-ready structure, and automatic navigation.
