Clone your docs locally
Clone your docs locally
During the onboarding process, we created a repository on your Github with
your docs content. You can find this repository on our
dashboard. To clone the repository
locally, follow these
instructions
in your terminal.
Preview changes
Preview changes
Previewing helps you make sure your changes look as intended. We built a
command line interface to render these changes locally. 1. Install the
Mintlify CLI to preview the
documentation changes locally with this command:
npm i -g mintlify
2. Run the following command at the root of your documentation (where
mint.json is): mintlify devDeploy your changes
Install our Github app
Install our Github app
Our Github app automatically deploys your changes to your docs site, so you
don’t need to manage deployments yourself. You can find the link to install on
your dashboard. Once the bot has been
successfully installed, there should be a check mark next to the commit hash
of the repo.
Push your changes
Push your changes
Commit and push your changes to
Git
for your changes to update in your docs site. If you push and don’t see that
the Github app successfully deployed your changes, you can also manually
update your docs through our dashboard.
