We are working hard on Docusaurus v2. If you are new to Docusaurus, try using the new version instead of v1. See the Docusaurus v2 website for more details.

Introduction

Docusaurus is a project for easily building, deploying, and maintaining open source project websites.

  • Simple to Start Docusaurus is built to be easy to get up and running in as little time possible. We’ve built Docusaurus to handle the website build process so you can focus on your project.
  • Localizable Docusaurus ships with localization support via CrowdIn. Empower and grow your international community by translating your documentation.
  • Customizable While Docusaurus ships with the key pages and sections you need to get started, including a home page, a docs section, a blog, and additional support pages, it is also customizable as well to ensure you have a site that is uniquely yours.

Installation

Docusaurus is available as the docusaurus package on npm.

We have also released the docusaurus-init package to make getting started with Docusaurus even easier.

Contributing

We’ve released Docusaurus because it helps us better scale and supports the many OSS projects at Facebook. We hope that other organizations can benefit from the project. We are thankful for any contributions from the community.

Code of Conduct

Facebook has adopted a Code of Conduct that we expect project participants to adhere to. Please read the full text so that you can understand what actions will and will not be tolerated.
