Docusaurus Config

Docusaurus Config

Quick Start

Configuration lives in docusaurus.config.js or docusaurus.config.ts at project root.

import { Config } from '@docusaurus/types';

const config: Config = {
  title: 'My Site', // Required
  url: 'https://example.com', // Required, no trailing /
  baseUrl: '/', // Required, must start and end with /

  favicon: 'img/favicon.ico',
  organizationName: 'my-org',
  projectName: 'my-project',

  presets: [
    [
      '@docusaurus/preset-classic',
      {
        /* options */
      },
    ],
  ],
  themeConfig: {
    /* theme config */
  },
  customFields: {
    /* unknown fields go here */
  },
};

export default config;

Core Principles

• Required: title, url, baseUrl are mandatory
• Custom fields: Unknown fields must use customFields object
• Validation: url no trailing slash, baseUrl must be /path/
• Plugins/themes: Use string or [name, options] array format

Common Tasks

Before editing: Read current config to preserve format (JS/TS, ESM/CommonJS)

After editing: Verify required fields, URL formats, and restart dev server
