Getting Started

To begin creating your documentation create a new docs/ folder at the root of your repository. Add a file called index.md with a short markdown description of the project. Add pages by creating new markdown files in the docs/ folder. Each page should have a level-1 heading at the beginning which is treated as the title of the page.

To render the HTML output change to the docs/ folder and run docket. This should create a new docs/build/ folder containing the rendered site; ready to be published to a web-server or served with GitHub Pages. For more information about setup and configuration check out the docs.
