Read the Docs

Meet Read the Docs

Read the Docs builds and hosts documentation from a project's source repository. Writers can keep documentation beside their code and publish it with tools such as Sphinx, MkDocs, or Docusaurus. When the repository changes, the service builds the updated pages; branches and tags can become separate documentation versions.

Pull request previews let reviewers read a proposed change as a working documentation site, with visual comparisons available for checking page changes. Search helps readers find relevant sections across the published material. Teams working on private documentation can use access controls and single sign-on, while versioned publishing keeps instructions for different releases available to their readers.
