daily.dev Documentation
This repository holds the official help and reference guides for daily.dev, a platform that helps developers discover and read relevant tech news and articles. Think of it as the instruction manual for the product—it explains how to use daily.dev's features, answers common questions, and walks users through setup and troubleshooting.
The documentation is built as a website that runs locally on your computer or can be deployed to the internet. A developer clones the code, installs dependencies, and runs a simple command to see the docs site appear in their web browser. The same code can be packaged up and deployed to a live server so that anyone online can access it. The README includes instructions for deploying using Docker, which is a containerization tool that bundles the entire site with all its dependencies so it runs the same way everywhere.
The intended audience is anyone maintaining daily.dev's help content—technical writers, product managers, or developers who want to improve or add to the documentation. If you work on daily.dev or want to contribute fixes or new pages to the docs, you'd clone this repo, make your changes locally, see how they look, and submit them back to the project. It's also useful for anyone who wants to run an offline copy of the docs or integrate them into another system.
The project is written in JavaScript and uses standard web development tooling. The README keeps setup straightforward with just a few commands, making it accessible even to people who aren't deeply experienced with development environments. The inclusion of Docker instructions shows the project is designed to be deployable in multiple ways—either on a developer's machine directly, or through containerized infrastructure for production use.
