Docus

Nuxt theme and CLI that builds documentation sites from Markdown files.

Docus is a documentation theme for Nuxt that builds a documentation site from Markdown files in a content folder. A project is created with the create-docus command and can extend the Docus layer in its Nuxt configuration. Pages can embed Vue components through MDC syntax, and the site supports several languages. The installation guide describes the setup.

The project is maintained by NuxtLabs and published under the MIT license. Its repository holds the CLI, the layer and the documentation site as separate packages. Nuxt Studio, a separate editor for Nuxt Content sites, is not part of Docus.
