Tech Stack

• Framework: Next.js 16 (App Router)
• Library: React 19
• Language: TypeScript
• Styling: Tailwind CSS 4
• Content: MDX for documentation pages
• Search: Algolia or custom search (planned)
• Code Highlighting: Shiki or Prism
• Data Fetching: TanStack Query
• API Communication: REST (to main backend for dynamic content)

Frontend Architecture

Content Strategy

• Static pages: MDX files compiled at build time
• Dynamic content: API references fetched from backend OpenAPI spec
• Versioning: Documentation versions match platform releases
• Search: Full-text search across all documentation

Communication

• Backend API: REST for dynamic API documentation
• No direct storage access: All examples and references via backend
• Public access: Most docs are public, some require authentication

Design Principles

• Clarity over cleverness: Simple, direct explanations
• Code examples first: Show, then explain
• Searchable: Fast, accurate search functionality
• Versioned: Documentation matches platform versions
• Similar tone to: Stripe, Supabase, or HashiCorp documentation
