Fumadocs is a documentation framework designed for building content-heavy technical websites using MDX. It functions as a static site generator that transforms structured text files into optimized, interactive web pages, providing a comprehensive toolset for managing technical content, API references, and versioned guides.
The platform distinguishes itself through a deep integration of interactive components and AI-ready features. It includes a library of pre-built interface elements that allow developers to embed live API playgrounds, request snippets, and schema-based documentation directly into their pages. Furthermore, the framework structures content for machine-readable indexing, enabling AI-powered search and chat interfaces that allow users to query technical information using natural language.
Beyond its core rendering capabilities, the project provides extensive support for site management, including internationalization, multi-version documentation, and granular navigation control. It automates common documentation tasks such as file-system-based routing, search indexing, and metadata extraction, while offering flexible styling options for themes, typography, and layout dimensions.
The framework is designed for integration with modern web development workflows, offering command-line utilities for project scaffolding and component installation. It supports deployment across standard web servers and edge hosting platforms through framework-specific adapters and static build configurations.
