Documentation repositories

These are the documentation repositories you may want to contribute to.

  • docs-product – most of the Product Documentation is here.
  • docs-howtos – How-to Guides, written like tutorials to help the developers extend the functionality of the built-in features.
  • docs-bestpractices – the documents about best practices.

For power users

Here's some extra info about editing OutSystems docs and GitHub.

  • You don't have to use GitHub web interface to create the clone and edit the files. However, you do need it to create pull request on the website.
  • If you plan to edit the docs regularly, you should consider using git on your local machine and setting it up for sync.
