Repository Details

Generate GitBook-like modern docs/tutorial websites using Gatsby

Project is no longer maintained (as if it was in recent two years πŸ™ƒ). I suggest to switch to Docusaurus which is really powerful documentation sites engine, quite similar to BooGi

BooGi

Netlify Status GitHub release (latest SemVer) CI Codacy Badge

Create awesome documentation or tutorial pages with modern look-and-feel. Customize it to your needs, run locally, deploy anywhere.

Important Check boogi-cli to start quickly, simplify your codebase, easily run locally and build you BooGi-based app. We recommend using boogi-cli instead of using gatsby-cli directly.

Motivation

Goal is to give teams powerful tool which they can use to efficiently and collaboratively share their knowledge. They can easily host it on any infrastructure of choice or SaaS hosting like Netlify, Vercel or GitHub / GitLab Pages. We want to provide a product, which can be customized to (nearly) any needs, either using basic or advanced configuration options.

BooGi is inspired by popular Gitbook look and feel. It offers custom styling and components that enable building beautiful documentation for projects and products quickly. It follows docs-as-code principles, where you treat your documentation in the same way as your code.

It is a fork of https://github.com/hasura/gatsby-gitbook-starter, however it went through total rework and changes. We improve it to provide significantly more features, make look-and-feel more similar to Gitbook, improve stability, performance, make it more configurable and easier to start with.
