Varies by plan (check documentation)

Overview

Mintlify is a documentation platform API that lets you programmatically generate and manage beautiful docs for your code projects. You can create, update, and publish documentation pages without leaving your codebase. It is ideal for developer teams who want to automate their docs workflow.

💡

Beginner Tip

Start by generating docs for a single function or module before tackling an entire codebase. Mintlify works best when your code already has clear comments or docstrings.
