NEAR Protocol - scalable and usable blockchain

Discord CI

This is the repository for the official documentation of NEAR Protocol, a user-friendly and carbon-neutral blockchain, built from the ground up to be performant, secure, and infinitely scalable.

Quick start

Check out the following links

Contributing

NEAR uses Docusaurus for documentation. Please refer to their documentation for details on major structural contributions to the documentation.

For simple content changes you have 2 options

The instant PR

This is the fastest way to submit content changes directly from the page where you notice a mistake.

  1. Open any page in the docs on https://docs.near.org
  2. Click the [ Edit ] button at the top right hand side of every content page
  3. Make your edits to the document that opens in GitHub by clicking the ✎ (pencil) icon
  4. Submit a PR with your changes and comments for context

The typical PR

This is the standard fork-branch-commit workflow for submitting pull requests to open source repositories

  1. Fork this repo to your own GitHub account (or just clone it directly if you are currently a member of NEAR)

  2. Open your editor to the top level repo folder to view the directory structure as seen below

  3. Move into the /website folder where you will run the following commands:

    • Make sure all the dependencies for the website are installed:

      # Install dependencies
      yarn
    • Run the local docs development server

      # Start the site
      yarn start

      Expected Output

      # Website with live reload is started
      LiveReload server started on port 35729
      Docusaurus server started on port 3000

      The website for docs will open your browser locally to port 3000

  4. Make changes to the docs

  5. Observe those changes reflected in the local docs

  6. Submit a pull request with your changes - Please check for broken links before opening PR 🙏
