Overview
John Le provides powerful tools to streamline your documentation workflow.

These features help you create professional documentation spaces tailored to your projects.

Work together with version history and real-time edits.
Formatting
Use markdown and components for rich content.
Search
Find content instantly across your docs.

Share via PDF, HTML, or embeds.
Document Organization and Hierarchy
Organize your documentation into logical structures using folders, subpages, and custom navigation. This keeps large projects manageable.
Create Folders
Navigate to your workspace and select "New Folder". Name it descriptively, like "API Reference".
Add Pages
Inside a folder, create pages with "New Page". Use the hierarchy view to drag and reorder.
Set Navigation
Customize sidebar menus to reflect your structure.
Use consistent naming conventions like "v1.0-introduction" for versions to maintain clear hierarchies.
Collaboration and Version Control
Invite team members to edit docs in real-time. John Le tracks changes with full version history, similar to Git but integrated into your workspace.
Multiple users edit simultaneously. Changes appear instantly with user indicators.
View diffs, restore previous versions, or compare changes.
Formatting and Editing Tools
Leverage markdown, MDX components, and a visual editor for professional formatting.

Export your docs for offline use or embedding.
Export to PDF
Select pages or folders, choose "Export > PDF".
Generate HTML
Create a static site with "Export > HTML Site".
Share Links
Generate public or private links with permissions.
