Hi ProductHunters! 👋 I needed some documentation for my project called Serverless SaaS and decided to use my starter kit to build a tool for quickly creating docs for new projects. Inspired by the Tailwind docs, it's clean and simple, and only has a couple of options to customize (like theme color and logo). You can use markdown to create the content of your pages and choose your own route paths. If people like to project I will continue to add more features in the near future. Let me know what you think!

It's cool! Very simple, I think you should create more like blog site :D

@anninh125 Thanks! Interesting, what features do you think of to make it more like a blog site?

@anninh125 @jake_prins see Seth Godin‘s blog as an example. https://seths.blog/

@anninh125 @jake_prins I think almost startups need a blog site where they can publish news, feature updates, FAQ, etc (It takes time to build a new site). They need the simple, clean and modern blog site and its editor site. Imagine just select site style, customize branding, categorize menu and post.

@jake_prins I like your app! However, I'm trying to add some embed with video from YouTube, but it doesn't appear on a page... Is that a paid feature? Also, when I'm trying to add picture, it's the same thing (I've used public Google Drive Link).

@jake_prins @dimitry_bukrieiev You should be able to add your youtube video. Try it like llike this: [![Video title][https://example.com/image-address.png)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VTN77j_8y8) I'm going to check whats the problem with the picture. Do you mean the project logo? Should be able to upload from your computer.

@jake_prins @dimitry_bukrieiev Thanks for sending this. But it didn't work for some reason on my end. 1) That's what I used: [![Video title][https://drive.google.com/file/d/1019wBPVnLTm0lSGiXNjbeBCOSSWJphZb/view)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJURkc5OAT4) 2) I want to just add some screenshots to the page along with description

@jake_prins @dimitry_bukrieiev Looks like it's not working with the Google Drive link. You need the actual image path. This should work for the video: [![Why managed print service with INTGR8](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/v22q2JwWXltBdpj9-d88Negr4jfF2kGzOUiCK2x9PflM10lbuNaAEg46j3rc4GZsvh95gtGg_ANHhs_0s3yS=w3440-h1304-rw)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJURkc5OAT4)

@jake_prins @dimitry_bukrieiev Thanks so much! All worked! I know many people using Notion for similar purposes, but your solution looks so much more professional. Idea 💡 It would be great to have a password protection feature for teams who want to use this solution for semi-confidential internal documentation (IT Help Desk companies, Accounting, Law firms, etc.) When opening the link, it will show "Enter Password". It should not be hard to achieve. All best! Thanks again for your reply!

@jake_prins Cool stuff. How do you see this different from say Docusaurus, that a lot of apps/libraries use for documentation?

@jake_prins @rajatkulkarni95 Thanks! I'm not sure yet. I didn't do any research. It might because something different in the future, but for now it's probably just the styling ;)

This looks great

Really well done! My only (minor) criticism is the need to refresh browser to see changes, but no big deal.
