The Altinn docs site is generated from markdown using the Hugo static site generator.
- Download and install Git and clone the docs repository to a local folder.
- We also recommend downloading and using vs code for editing markdown
- Download Hugo (version 0.21 or newer) for your platform, and place it in the same folder named as "hugo.exe"
- Open the docs repo-folder in vs code (or another editor)
- Run
hugo -serve
or click "Run Altinn docs" (Ctrl-Shift-D) in vs code. This generates the site and opens Chrome at http://loalhost:1313/docs - Edit any markdown (.md) file in the content-folder to get a new build of the docs site refreshed in your browser. We use YAML as front matter.
Whenever changes are pushed to the docs-repository, an automatic build is triggered updating https://altinn.github.io/docs
If you don't have write access to the docs-repo, you need to create a fork and submit a pull request.
