Course Description
Do you want to share documentation, a wiki, a white paper, or a guide with the world? Many people still use plain PDFs, images, or unformatted chat messages that get outdated quickly and are not exciting.
The software's essential part is its documentation. Google, Facebook, and other big tech companies have well-structured and outstanding docs designed to share knowledge. Why don't we mimic the best?
The docs are so crucial that Facebook released its internal software called Docusaurus to open-source (made it free to use) so that everyone can present their knowledge with a high stay continuously always available online:
- they look readable on a device of any size,
- support many languages with a click of a button,
- and offer appropriate information for each software version (e.g., Hasura has version dropdown `v2.x` at the top).
- A structured sidebar allows jumping between sections,
- and the content has many formatting options to draw the reader's attention to important parts. One can even insert YouTube videos, maps, or other embeddable content for a better illustration.
It's unsurprising if you haven't heard about Docusaurus before, as only developers have used it for other developers.
In this course, we want to show how to make a wiki website using Docusaurus. Its motto is "Build optimized websites quickly, focus on your content." Combining this philosophy with handy tools like CodeSandbox requires zero coding knowledge to make his Docusaurus website
By completing the lectures:
- You'll know how to host and version your content on GitHub
- Make use of CodeSandbox to edit and preview the changes in real-time
- Use Vercel to deliver the content as a website with your customized domain name
Additionally, your website will be FREE to make and FREE to host! Contrary to many other website builders like famous WordPress, Docusaurus doesn't need a "server." So, unless you have massive traffic, Vercel's generous free tier will cover all expenses.
Docusaurus is software with many options, including website translation, versioning, custom pages, and blogging support. However, this is a beginner course; we can't dive too deep. You can likely figure those features out by simply reading the official documents. If not, you can always ask us a question :)
Please be aware that changing the design and making custom landing pages (not part of documentation or blog) requires some basic coding knowledge and is not covered in this course. This being said the default design is already stunning, and you will learn in this course how to customize many aspects of your website: colors, menus, docs style, etc.
So, what are you waiting for? You can have your website live in less than 30 minutes!
