How to create a new page

  1. Create a new branch for your new page. See Make a Change Using a Local Clone.
  2. Decide what type of content your new page will be. See the Content Guide for details and structure.
  3. Decide which directory your new page should go into. If you need to create a new section, be sure to include the _index.md file, which functions as the section’s landing page. See the Docsy docs for details.
  4. Create a blank markdown file or copy an existing one of the same content type.
    • Pay special attention to weight in the front matter. It determines where a page shows up in the left nav for its section. If there isn’t a weight OR if multiple pages in a section have the same weight, the default is to display alphabetically.
  5. Add your content following the Style Guide and then create a pull request as outlined in Make a Change Using a Local Clone.
