Introduction
Overview of LiteDocs and how it works.
What is LiteDocs?
LiteDocs is built with Tailwind CSS, MDX and Next.js, and it is designed to be easy to use and customize.
Motivation
Documentation should be simple and fast to ship. LiteDocs focuses on an authoring-first workflow where you write MDX, optionally drop in React components, and publish a performant Next.js site without adopting a heavy framework.
- Reduce setup time — get a docs site running in minutes.
- Avoid vendor lock-in — keep everything in local files under
src/content. - Favor composition over configuration — customize via small React components.
- Provide sensible defaults for typography, theme, layout, and navigation.
Philosophy
- Content first: writing should be the main loop, not configuring tooling.
- Convention over configuration: predictable file structure and defaults.
- Composable UI: small, focused components you can swap or extend.
- Performance & accessibility: ship fast pages with accessible navigation.
- Transparent internals: straightforward code that’s easy to read and modify.
