# Documentation Guidelines
|
||
|
||
This document explains how to write and format documentation for LibreChat.
|
||
|
||
## New Documents
|
||
- Use lowercase letters and underscores to name new documents (e.g. `documentation_guidelines.md`).
|
||
- For new features, create new documentation and place it in the relevant folder/sub-folder under `../docs`.
|
||
- If the feature adds new functionality, add it to the feature section of the main `README.md` as well as in `../docs/index.md`.
|
||
- When you create a new document, **you need to add it to two table of contents:**
|
||
- in `README.md`
|
||
- and in the `index.md` file in the folder where your doc is located
|
||
|
||
## Markdown Formatting
|
||
- Use `#`, `##`, and `###` for headings and subheadings.
|
||
- Use `#` for the title of the document.
|
||
- Use `##` for the main sections of the document.
|
||
- Use `###` for the sub-sections within a section.
|
||
- Use `**` to make text **bold** to highlight important information (do not use in place of a heading).
|
||
- Use relative paths for links to other documents.
|
||
- You can use HTML to add more features to a document.
|
||
- By default the title indexed by mkdocs will be the first heading. You can override this by adding metadata at the top of your document:
|
||
```bash
|
||
---
|
||
title: Document Title
|
||
weight: 0
|
||
---
|
||
```
|
||
- Setting the weight in the document metadata will influence its position in the table of contents. Lowest weight are placed first. Not setting it will default to `0`. When multiple docs have the same weight it sorts in alphabetical order.
|
||
|
||
## Important Notes
|
||
- **⚠️Keep it organized and structured⚠️**
|
||
- Do not add unrelated information to an existing document. Create a new one if needed.
|
||
- All assets should be uploaded in the document from GitHub's webui
|
||
- **Before submitting a PR, double-check on GitHub that everything is properly displayed and that all links work correctly.**
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Tips
|
||
- You can check the code of this document to see how it works.
|
||
- You can run MKDocs locally to test bigger documentation changes
|
||
- You can ask GPT or Bing for help with proofreading, syntax, and markdown formatting.
