The problem, solved

Your docs shouldn't need engineering.

Today they go stale. With Dokly, your team ships them — in minutes.

Today

Edits wait on a deploy

A typo means a ticket, a PR, an engineer.

With Dokly

Publish it yourself. Live in seconds — no engineer in the loop.

Today

It looks off-brand

A generic gray wiki, nothing like your product.

With Dokly

Your brand, in clicks. Colors, fonts, and domain — no CSS.

Today

Nobody can find anything

Search misses, support gets the email, AI guesses.

With Dokly

Answers, not dead ends. Instant search and cited AI replies.

Use cases

Whatever you're writing, Dokly works.

Trust at first glance

Customers recognize you instantly.

## Welcome to Dokly

URL: https://docs.dokly.co
Summary: Beautiful documentation for modern teams. A block editor, a hosted
site, and your custom domain — in minutes.

Dokly is a documentation platform for product teams who care about how their
docs look, how fast they ship, and how easy they are to maintain.

You write in a block editor — slash menu, drag handles, live styled previews
of every component. Dokly handles the site, the search, the styling, the
custom domain, and the boring infrastructure.

## What's in here

  Create your first project, write a page, and publish to a live URL in under
  five minutes.

  Callouts, Tabs, Steps, Cards, API Playground — everything you need to make
  docs scannable.

  Import an OpenAPI spec and get an interactive playground for every endpoint.

## Built for the way teams actually work

  No CLI, no local preview, no syntax to memorize. Open the editor, hit `/`
  to insert a block, and type.

  Starter projects get `yourname.dokly.co`. Pro plans get a custom domain like
  `docs.yourcompany.com` with HTTPS handled for you.

  Edit a page, hit Save, the live site reflects it within seconds. No CI, no
  preview deploys, no build queue.

Layouts

Two shapes. Same editor.

Building product docs? Use the docs layout with a sidebar tree. Building support content? Use the help-center layout with a search hero and category cards. Switch any time in settings.

Docs
Left sidebar with a page tree, article body, TOC. The classic developer-docs shell — Mintlify, GitBook, ReadMe.
API docs · Product docs · OSS
Help center
Search hero up top, category cards in a grid, breadcrumbs + 'Was this helpful?' on every article. Intercom/Zendesk style.
Support · Customer KB · FAQ
Help center in action

A real help center, shipped in minutes.

Same editor, same publish flow — the help-center layout swaps in a search hero and category cards on the homepage, and adds breadcrumbs + a “Was this helpful?” widget on every article.

FAQ

Asked & answered.

?What's the difference between the Docs and Help center layouts?
Docs is the classic developer-docs shell: left sidebar with a page tree, article body with TOC. Good for product docs, API references, and OSS projects. Help center is search-first: a big search bar in the hero, category cards on the homepage, breadcrumbs and a “Was this helpful?” widget on every article. Good for support content and customer-facing FAQs. Pick one in onboarding; switch any time in project settings.
?Do I need to know git to use Dokly?
No — that's the point. Dokly is the source of truth. You write in the editor, press Publish, and your site updates. There's no clone, no branch, no PR, and no preview build to babysit.
?What is llms.txt and why does it matter?
llms.txt is an emerging standard for telling LLMs which pages on your site they should read — a curated index of the docs that matter, formatted for context windows. Dokly auto-generates /llms.txt (the index) and /llms-full.txt (every page as clean markdown) on every publish. Your docs are AI-readable by default.
?Can I import existing markdown or a URL?
Yes. Generate a starter site from a URL or OpenAPI spec, or paste raw markdown — the editor parses it into editable blocks. You never have to hand-write MDX.
?Can I host on my own domain?
On Team and above, point a CNAME at cname.dokly.co and Dokly issues and renews the TLS certificate automatically.
?What about SEO if Dokly hosts my site?
Pages are server-rendered with clean semantic HTML, per-page meta, sitemaps, and IndexNow pings on publish — built to rank for humans and to be cited by assistants.
