# Dockit

Dockit is DreamLake’s documentation shell for Vike, React, Tailwind v4,
and MDX. Write pages with frontmatter; Dockit builds the sidebar,
breadcrumbs, table of contents, search, and Markdown copies for agents.

## Start building

Follow the [Quickstart](/get-started/quickstart.md) to install the package
and wire a working site. If you already have a DreamLake docs site,
use the [migration guide](/get-started/migration.md).

## Three places to work

| Tab | What belongs here |
| --- | --- |
| **Dockit** | Setup, authoring, customization, search, and publishing. |
| **[Reference](/reference/config.md)** | Configuration fields, exports, and component APIs. |
| **[Python Autodoc](/python-autodoc.md)** | Generate Python API pages and include them in a Dockit site. |

Dockit and Reference share the Dockit package version. Python Autodoc
shows its own pinned source revision. See [versioning](/guides/releases.md)
for historical docs builds and version selectors.

## Build and publish

| Task | Guide |
| --- | --- |
| Configure branding, tabs, and sidebar sections | [Site config](/guides/site-config.md) |
| Write MDX and organize pages | [Authoring](/guides/authoring.md) |
| Customize colors and appearance | [Theming](/guides/theming.md) |
| Add full-text search | [Search](/guides/search.md) |
| Publish Markdown and an agent skill | [AI-readable docs and skills](/guides/llms.md) |
| Preserve builds and configure version switching | [Versioning](/guides/releases.md) |
| Review package changes | [Release notes](/get-started/release-notes.md) |

## Look up an API

Start with [configuration](/reference/config.md) or the [export index](/reference/exports.md).
The [shell reference](/reference/components/shell.md) covers Layout, Sidebar,
and TOC; [Topbar](/reference/components/topbar.md) covers tabs and version chips.

For MDX content, see [Callout](/reference/components/callout.md),
[CodeBlock](/reference/components/code-block.md), [Preview](/reference/components/preview.md),
[StatusTable](/reference/components/status-table.md), and [Chip](/reference/components/chip.md).
