What is Doctor

  • Doctor is a Documentation Server for all your project docs.
  • Doctor beautifully decouples document serving and document contents.
  • Create your docs in markdown. Store them anywhere (github/dropbox/google drive/ anywhere really).
  • Login to Doctor's Dashboard. Setup links to your doc files in Doctor's Dashboard.
  • You are done!

Live Demo

You may use the Suggest Edits feature in Doctor to submit changes to any of the MD files in github. Doctor relies on github workflow to accept PRs for changes.

# If you want to start the services in production
RAILS_ENV=production docker-compose up -d

# If you want to start the services in development
docker-compose up -d
