Show HN: Open-source product documentation platform

4 points by arek_nawo 2 years ago · 0 comments · 1 min read

Vrite is meant to be an open-source, collaborative developer content platform for everything from technical blogs and product documentation to internal knowledge bases.

The idea is to provide a great "hybrid" editing experience (combining code and WYSIWYG approach) to create an editing environment that's extensible and can be used for various technical needs, by people of varying technical proficiency.

Since the last time I posted this project here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36324281) I followed on the recieved feedback, adding:

- GitHub synchronization (for existing projects using docs-as-code approach);

- Self-hosting support via Docker Compose;

- Command palette with semantic search (also accessible via API);

- Variants (for i18n support);

- New "Element" block in the editor, allowing for custom markup (via XML-like syntax) that's then transformed to structured JSON;

- Other features, like more customization, better commenting support and new dashboard view (list)

Check it out and let me know what you think.
