Quick Start — 3 Minutes
Create a documentation site from GitHub in 3 simple steps.
Step 1: Create your Docsbook account#
- Open docsbook.io
- Click the "Create my docs site" button
- Choose a sign-in method — GitHub, Google, Apple, or email (one-time code)
- Complete the sign-in flow for your chosen method
Note: Docsbook uses GitHub to read your repository files. If you sign in with Google, Apple, or email, you will be prompted to authorize GitHub access when you connect a repository in Step 2.
Step 2: Choose a Repository#
After signing in you'll see a list of your public repositories.
- Find the repository with documentation
- Click on it
- Docsbook will create a workspace
Step 3: View Your Site#
Your documentation is already available at:
docsbook.io/{your-name}/{repo}
Example:
- GitHub:
github.com/alice/my-project - Docsbook:
docsbook.io/alice/my-project
