Working on Docs

Datadog Staff

Always branch off of master; never commit directly to master.
Name your branch slack_username/branch_name. If you don't include the forward slash (/), the Gitlab pipeline won't run and you won't get a branch preview. Getting a branch preview makes it easier for us to check for any issues with your PR, such as broken links. Using a Slack username ensures you get build notifications in Slack.
Consult our contributing guidelines.
When you're ready to commit, create a new pull request to master from your branch.
Use GitHub's draft pull request feature and appropriate labels such as "Do Not Merge" or "Work in Progress" until your PR is ready to be merged and live on production.
If you've named your branch correctly, a GitHub bot posts a link to the docs preview website for your PR. After the preview build completes, you can use the link to preview your changes.
Running the build locally is optional. If you followed the branch naming conventions above, your pull request should generate a preview. For information on local builds, see the Build setup guide.

Outside Contributors

Fork the master branch.
Consult our contributing guidelines.
When you're ready to finalize your changes, commit them and make a pull request back to DataDog/master.
A Datadog technical writer might change your PR title with a DOCS ticket number, such as "[DOCS-9000]," which means it has been added to the team's internal Jira queue to triage and review. No action is necessary from you if we change the title of your PR.

A note about markdown

This site uses Goldmark for markdown, which is compliant with CommonMark 0.29.

If you include ANY Markdown in a file, give it a .md extension.

Make sure all files are lowercase. Macs are case-insensitive when creating links to images and pages, but our build server is not, so tests may work locally, but the site will fail in production.

Releasing

Merging to master triggers an automatic deployment. This process typically begins within 10 minutes and usually takes around 35 minutes to complete, though these times may vary.
