-3. Once enabled, build your production docs
+HTTP snippets are enabled by default for all documentation sites. To disable snippets or enable only for certain languages, use the `settings.http-snippets` configuration in your `docs.yml` file:

-Currently, HTTP snippets are provided as an all-or-nothing set. You cannot configure which languages are displayed. If you would like this feature, please [open a GitHub issue](https://github.com/fern-api/fern/issues/new?template=docs-feature.yml).

+## HTTP Snippets now enabled by default
+
+HTTP snippets are now enabled by default for all documentation sites, making it easier for developers to see cURL, Python, Ruby, and other HTTP client examples directly in your API reference. Previously, this feature required internal configuration to activate.
+
+You can now control HTTP snippets directly in your `docs.yml` file:
+
+```yaml title="docs.yml"
+# Turn off HTTP snippets
+settings:
+  http-snippets: false
+
+# Or specify only certain languages
+settings:
+  http-snippets:
+    - python
+    - ruby
+```
+
+Visit the [HTTP snippets documentation](/docs/api-references/http-snippets) to learn more.
