📚Docs.plus

Docs.plus is a free, real-time collaboration tool built on open-source technologies. It empowers communities to share and organize information logically and hierarchically, making teamwork and knowledge sharing straightforward and effective.

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites:

• Node.js (version ">=18.15.0")
• Yarn
• PostgreSQL (downloadable from the official PostgreSQL website) or Docker for running a PostgreSQL container.

Docs.plus is organized as a monorepo and uses Yarn Workspaces for managing dependencies and synchronizing versions across different packages.

🛠 Setting Up Your Development Environment

Follow these steps to get started with Docs.plus:

# Clone the repository
$ git clone https://github.com/docs-plus/docs.plus.git

# Navigate to the project directory
$ cd docs.plus

# Install dependencies
$ yarn

PostgreSQL Database Setup

Set up a PostgreSQL database accessible to your development environment. If using Docker, here's a basic command to start a PostgreSQL container:

docker run --name some-postgres -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword -d postgres

More details on the PostgreSQL Docker image are available in the official Docker documentation.

Running the Project

Unix-based systems (macOS, Linux):

./run_dev.sh

Windows systems: Ensure PowerShell is installed. Then, to start the development servers, open three separate PowerShell windows and run the following commands:

# PowerShell Window 1
cd .\packages\hocuspocus.server\
npm run dev

# PowerShell Window 2
cd .\packages\hocuspocus.server\
npm run dev:ws

# PowerShell Window 3
cd .\packages\nextjs\
npm run dev

💡 We're actively seeking contributors to improve our Windows setup instructions. If you can assist, we'd be thrilled! Your contribution will enhance the accessibility of Docs.plus for Windows users and foster our community's growth. All collaboration is warmly welcomed!
