Testing search locally requires your own Algolia credentials, but viewing and editing docs works with a standard install.
This repository contains the source code for Botpress's official documentation website, the guides, references, and tutorials that help users understand and work with their chatbot-building platform. Instead of being a product itself, it's the behind-the-scenes project that generates the public-facing help site developers and creators rely on. The site is built using Docusaurus 2, a tool that takes written content and turns it into a polished, ready-to-host website. Anyone who wants to preview or contribute to the documentation can download the project, run a simple command, and see a live version of the site open in their browser. As they edit the content, the page updates automatically without needing a refresh, which makes writing and reviewing documentation much smoother. The project is mainly for technical writers, open-source contributors, or Botpress team members who want to improve the company's documentation. For example, if someone spots a typo in a tutorial or wants to add a new guide explaining a feature, they would make those changes here and submit them for review. Once accepted, the updated documentation appears on the live site. A couple of notable details stand out. The site's search feature is powered by Algolia, a third-party search service, and contributors need to provide their own Algolia credentials if they want to test search functionality locally. The README also mentions a temporary workaround related to how web links are redirected to the new documentation site, noting that a small piece of custom code should eventually be replaced with a standard built-in alternative once that redirect is no longer needed. Deployment to the live web is handled automatically by Vercel, a popular hosting platform.
