Template Details

docs-toolkit is a customizable documentation theme package provided by Exactpro, published as the npm package @exactpro/docs-web-toolkit, for building documentation websites for projects. It is based on the Nuxt framework and is introduced into a target documentation project as a layer through Nuxt's extends mechanism, so the prerequisites for installing Nuxt must be met before use.

In terms of usage, create nuxt.config.ts in the documentation directory and add @exactpro/docs-web-toolkit to the extends array to enable the basic functionality; basic site information such as the site title is configured in the exactproDocs field of app.config.ts, for example title. Content authoring relies on Nuxt Content, organizing documentation according to the conventions of the content directory. During development, nuxi dev can be used to start a local server to view changes in real time; to build a static site, use nuxi generate, with output located in dist or .output/public; the build result can be checked locally with nuxi preview. If the documentation exists as a subproject, the above prepare, dev, generate, and preview commands can all be passed the subproject directory.

Regarding the development experience, the README recommends creating tsconfig.json in the docs directory and extending ./.nuxt/tsconfig.json, then running nuxi prepare to generate type definitions for IDE hints. The repository's public demo site is exactpro.github.io/docs-toolkit. The code is licensed under Apache-2.0, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, but third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate license verification, and external services such as domains and hosting may incur additional charges.

NuxtDocumentation

Is it right for your project?

Use Cases

  • Building an independent documentation website for a specific project
  • Developing and building documentation as a subproject under the main project
  • Generating static HTML files and deploying them to a static hosting environment
  • Starting a local development server to preview documentation changes in real time

Suitable For

  • Teams using Nuxt that want to reuse a documentation theme as an extension layer
  • Projects that need to statically generate a documentation site for static hosting
  • Engineering setups where documentation and code are in the same repository and maintained as a subproject
  • Developers who need to use and modify the documentation theme under the Apache-2.0 license

Getting started & customization

Use these recorded setup notes alongside the repository instructions for your chosen version.

  1. 1

    The prerequisites for installing Nuxt must be met first, then run npm install @exactpro/docs-web-toolkit

  2. 2

    Create nuxt.config.ts in the documentation directory and add @exactpro/docs-web-toolkit to the extends array to enable the basic functionality

  3. 3

    Fill in project information such as title in exactproDocs in app.config.ts

  4. 4

    For IDE type hints, create tsconfig.json in the docs directory that extends ./.nuxt/tsconfig.json and run npx nuxi prepare

  5. 5

    Static build output is located in dist or .output/public and can be checked locally with npx nuxi preview; when the documentation is a subproject, the commands need the subproject directory appended

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Nuxt as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.

    title: 'Exactpro Docs'
  }
})
```

## Local writing

```shell
npx nuxi dev my-docs/
```

## Static hosting

To generate HTML files for static hosting:
