If you are looking to explore the Dapr documentation, please go to the documentation website:

https://docs.dapr.io

This repo contains the markdown files which generate the above website. See below for guidance on running with a local environment to contribute to the docs.

The Dapr docs handles branching differently than most code repositories. Instead of having a master or main branch, every branch is labeled to match the major and minor version of a runtime release.

The following branches are currently maintained:

Before making your first contribution, make sure to review the contributing section in the docs.

The Dapr docs are built using Hugo with the Docsy theme, hosted on an Azure Static Web App.

The daprdocs directory contains the hugo project, markdown files, and theme configurations.

This repository comes with a devcontainer configuration that automatically installs all the required dependencies and VSCode extensions to build and run the docs.

This devcontainer can be used to develop locally with VSCode or via GitHub Codespaces completely in the browser. Other IDEs that support devcontainers can be used but won't have the extensions preconfigured and will likely have different performance characteristics.
