+
-## Code-based workflow
+## Local development
-The code-based workflow integrates with your existing development environment and Git repositories. This workflow is best for technical teams who want to manage documentation alongside code.
+Work with documentation files in your local environment using familiar development tools.
### Install the CLI
-To work locally with your documentation, install the Command Line Interface (CLI), called [mint](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mint), by running this command in your terminal:
+Install the Mintlify CLI to preview changes locally:
- ```bash npm
- npm i -g mint
- ```
+```bash npm
+npm i -g mint
+```
- ```bash pnpm
- pnpm add -g mint
- ```
+```bash pnpm
+pnpm add -g mint
+```
-
- You need Node.js installed on your machine. If you encounter installation issues, check the troubleshooting guide.
-
-
-### Edit the documentation
+
+Requires Node.js v19 or higher. Check your version with `node --version`.
+
-After setting up your environment, you can start editing your documentation files. For example, update the title of the introduction page:
+### Make your first edit
-1. Open your repository created during onboarding.
-2. Open `index.mdx` and locate the top of the file:
+1. Clone your repository from the onboarding process
+2. Open `index.mdx` and update the title:
```mdx index.mdx
---
-title: "Introduction"
-description: "This is the introduction to the documentation"
+title: "My awesome docs"
+description: "Welcome to my documentation"
---
-```
-3. Update the `title` field to `"Hello World"`.
+# Welcome
-```mdx index.mdx {2}
----
-title: "Hello World"
-description: "This is the introduction to the documentation"
----
+This is my documentation homepage.
```
-### Preview the changes
+### Preview locally
-To preview the changes locally, run the following command:
+Start the development server:
```bash
mint dev
```
-Your preview will be available at `localhost:3000`.
+Your site runs at `http://localhost:3000` with live reload.
- 
- 
+
+
-### Push the changes
-
-When you are ready to publish your changes, push them to your repository.
+### Deploy changes
-Mintlify automatically detects the changes, builds your documentation, and deploys the updates to your site. Monitor the deployment status in your GitHub repository commit history or the [dashboard](https://dashboard.mintlify.com).
+Push your changes to trigger automatic deployment:
-After the deployment completes, your latest update will be available at `.mintlify.app`.
-
-
- Optionally, skip the web editor workflow and jump to adding a custom domain.
-
+```bash
+git add .
+git commit -m "Update homepage title"
+git push origin main
+```
-## Web editor workflow
+Your site updates automatically within minutes.
-The web editor workflow provides a what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) interface for creating and editing documentation. This workflow is best for people who want to work in their web browser without additional local development tools.

-For more details about using the web editor, including using branches and pull requests to collaborate and preview changes, see our [web editor documentation](/editor/getting-started).
+## Add a custom domain
-## Adding a custom domain
+Replace your `.mintlify.app` subdomain with your own domain.
-While your `.mintlify.app` subdomain works well for testing and development, most teams prefer using a custom domain for production documentation.
-
-To add a custom domain, navigate to the [Domain Setup](https://dashboard.mintlify.com/settings/deployment/custom-domain) page in your dashboard.
+1. Go to **Settings** → **Custom Domain** in your dashboard
+2. Enter your domain (e.g., `docs.company.com`)
+3. Add the CNAME record to your DNS provider:
- 
- 
+
+
-Enter your domain (for example, `docs.yourcompany.com`) and follow the provided instructions to configure DNS settings with your domain provider.
-
-
| Record Type | Name | Value | TTL |
|-------------|------|-------|-----|
-| CNAME | docs (or subdomain) | cname.mintlify.app | 3600 |
-
+| CNAME | docs | cname.mintlify.app | 3600 |
- DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate, though changes often complete much sooner.
+DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate globally.
