Stainless Docs Platform

Infinitely extensible

Stainless Docs Platform sites are built with Astro, an open-source framework for high-performance, content-driven websites. You can customize anything from the smallest component to the entire UI.

import { defineConfig } from "astro/config";
import { stainlessDocs } from "@stainless-api/docs";
import { generateChangelog } from "./generateChangelog";

function generateChangelogIntegration() {
  return {
    name: "generate-changelog",
    hooks: {
      "astro:build:done": async ({ pages }) => {
        await generateChangelog(pages);
      },
    },
  };
}

export default defineConfig({
  integrations: [
    stainlessDocs({ title: "Todo Ninja" }),
    generateChangelogIntegration(),
  ],
});
import { defineConfig } from "astro/config";
import { stainlessDocs } from "@stainless-api/docs";
import { generateChangelog } from "./generateChangelog";

function generateChangelogIntegration() {
  return {
    name: "generate-changelog",
    hooks: {
      "astro:build:done": async ({ pages }) => {
        await generateChangelog(pages);
      },
    },
  };
}

export default defineConfig({
  integrations: [
    stainlessDocs({ title: "Todo Ninja" }),
    generateChangelogIntegration(),
  ],
});
