Documentation

Docs that stay in sync with your code.

Deploy creates a GitHub repo you fully own. No fork required.

Created by HugoBlox

The docs site your users will actually read

Documentation should live next to your code, not in a separate CMS. Searchable docs with sidebar navigation, versioning, and syntax highlighting — all from Markdown files in your repo. No database, no Notion dependency, no stale wiki.

What's included

  • Hierarchical sidebar — auto-generated from content/docs/ folder structure
  • Full-text search — client-side, no backend service required
  • Syntax highlighting — 200+ languages, language tabs for multi-language examples
  • Code-block copy button — one-click copy with feedback
  • Versioning support/v1/..., /v2/... paths with version-switcher
  • Changelog page — versioned release notes with date filtering
  • Edit-on-GitHub link on every page — community contributions friction-free
  • Open Graph + Twitter cards — shared docs pages render with the page title and section

Who it's for

  • Technical founders documenting an internal API or SDK
  • Technical writers at SMB startups whose Mintlify bill is approaching seat-licensing pain
  • DevRel teams maintaining a public knowledge base

If you're at a 200+ engineer org and need enterprise-tier docs, Mintlify Enterprise is probably still the right call — we're for the SMB slot they vacated.
