Use Docsy to set up your documentation website, including an optional Blog section, and then spend your time focusing on authoring technical content. Depending on how you choose to configure Docsy and whether you use a hosting service that supports continuous builds, you can even just add your Markdown or HTML content file into a folder on your source repository, and then sit back while it automatically gets added to your site - complete with updated menus.

## So what’s a technical documentation site?
2934

30-
A technical documentation site is a website that your users can visit to find the documentation for your technical project. Your documentation set contains all the information you think your users might need to engage with your project, from overviews that help them understand what the project is for, to instructions for specific tasks. Depending on the size of the project, a documentation set can be a page or two or an entire “book” with different types of information.
31-
32-
**Most users don’t want to have to spend much time looking at docs - they want to try your great project!** So how do you make sure your technical documentation set gives users what they need to easily understand your project and get things done? We think a good technical documentation set should be:
33-
34-
* **Reliable**: Is it true?
35-
* **Comprehensive**: Does it have all the information your target users might need?
36-
* **Well-organized and navigable**: Can the user find the information they need? Are similar types of information (all the information about a feature, all your reference information) grouped together?
37-
38-
If you have users around the world, you might also want to provide your content in multiple languages, and if you have an open source project, you’ll probably want your users to be able to contribute to the docs.
39-
40-
Once you have your content, you use a technical documentation site to publish your technical documentation set online for your users. In addition to your documentation, your site might also contain material like contact information, a blog, or information about how to contribute to the project.

We believe a well-organized documentation set can really help your users find the information they need, when they need it - whether it’s a “Hello World” tutorial when they’re starting out or a single core task they need to do to finish a complicated app. We also believe that having well-organized docs helps you create comprehensive docs, as it’s easier to see when you’re missing something important.
