+Read the Docs Addons
+====================
+
+**Read the Docs Addons** is a group of features for documentation readers and maintainers that you can add to any documentation set hosted on Read the Docs:
+
+:doc:`Traffic analytics </analytics>`
+    explore pageviews for your docs
+
+:doc:`DocDiff </pull-requests>`
+    highlight changed output from pull requests
+
+:doc:`Pull request notification </pull-requests>`
+    notify readers that they are reading docs from a pull request
+
+:doc:`Flyout </flyout-menu>`
+    easily switch between versions and translations
+
+:doc:`Non-stable notification </notifications>`
+    notify readers that they are reading docs from a non stable release
+
+:doc:`Latest version notification </notifications>`
+    notify readers that they are reading docs from an older version
+
+:doc:`Search as you type </server-side-search/index>`
+    get search results faster
+
+Enabling Read the Docs Addons
+-----------------------------
+
+All projects using the ``build.command`` :ref:`build command <config-file/v2:build.commands>` are already using the Addons, other projects can enable them by following these steps:
+
+#. Go to the new dashboard:
+
+    * `Community <https://app.readthedocs.org>`_
+    * `Business <https://app.readthedocs.com>`_
+
+#. Click on a project name.
+#. Go to :guilabel:`Settings`, then in the left bar, go to :guilabel:`Addons (Beta)`.
+#. Check :guilabel:`Enable Addons`, and then configure each Addon individually.
+
+Configuring Read the Docs Addons
+--------------------------------
+
+Individual configuration options for each addon are available in :guilabel:`Settings`.
+
+#. Go to the new dashboard:

-.. warning::
-
-   *This is currently deprecated* in favor of the new Read the Docs Addons approach.
-   We are working on an idea that exposes all the required data to build the flyout menu via a JavaScript ``CustomEvent``.
-   Take a look at an example of this approach at https://github.com/readthedocs/sphinx_rtd_theme/pull/1526.
-
-   We are looking for feedback on this approach before making it public.
-   Please, comment on that PR or the linked issue from its description letting us know if it would cover your use case.
-
-People who are making custom documentation themes often want to specify where the flyout is injected,
-and also what it looks like.
-We support both of these use cases for themes.
-
-Defining where the flyout menu is injected
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The flyout menu injection looks for a specific selector (``#readthedocs-embed-flyout``),
-in order to inject the flyout.
-You can add ``<div id="readthedocs-embed-flyout">`` in your theme,
-and our JavaScript code will inject the flyout there.
-All other themes except for the ``sphinx_rtd_theme`` have the flyout appended to the ``<body>``.
-
-Styling the flyout
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-HTML themes can style the flyout to make it match the overall style of the HTML.
-By default the flyout has it's `own CSS file <https://github.com/readthedocs/sphinx_rtd_theme/blob/master/src/sass/_theme_badge.sass>`_,
-which you can look at to see the basic CSS class names.
-
-The example HTML that the flyout uses is included here,
-so that you can style it in your HTML theme:
-
-.. code:: html
-
-    <div class="injected">
-       <div class="rst-versions rst-badge shift-up" data-toggle="rst-versions">
