-## Editing and previewing the docs of TanStack projects locally
+### Local Setup
-The documentations for all TanStack projects except for `React Charts` are hosted on [https://tanstack.com](https://tanstack.com), powered by this TanStack Router app.
-In production, the markdown doc pages are fetched from the GitHub repos of the projects, but in development they are read from the local file system.
+The documentation for all TanStack projects (except `React Charts`) is hosted on [tanstack.com](https://tanstack.com). In production, doc pages are fetched from GitHub. In development, they're read from your local file system.
-Follow these steps if you want to edit the doc pages of a project (in these steps we'll assume it's [`TanStack/form`](https://github.com/tanstack/form)) and preview them locally :
+Pre-commit hooks run smoke tests against these docs, so you'll need sibling repos cloned for commits to pass.
-1. Create a new directory called `tanstack`.
+Create a `tanstack` parent directory and clone this repo alongside the projects:
```sh
-mkdir tanstack
+mkdir tanstack && cd tanstack
+git clone git@github.com:TanStack/tanstack.com.git
+git clone git@github.com:TanStack/query.git
+git clone git@github.com:TanStack/router.git
+git clone git@github.com:TanStack/table.git
```
-2. Enter the directory and clone this repo and the repo of the project there.
+Your directory structure should look like this:
-```sh
-cd tanstack
-git clone git@github.com:TanStack/tanstack.com.git
-git clone git@github.com:TanStack/form.git
```
+tanstack/
+ ├── tanstack.com/
+ ├── query/
+ ├── router/
+ └── table/
+```
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> Directory names must match repo names exactly (e.g., `query` not `tanstack-query`). The app finds docs by looking for sibling directories by name.
+
+### Editing Docs
+
+To edit docs for a project, make changes in its `docs/` folder (e.g., `../form/docs/`) and visit http://localhost:3000/form/latest/docs/overview to preview.
> [!NOTE]
-> Your `tanstack` directory should look like this:
->
-> ```
-> tanstack/
-> |
-> +-- form/
-> |
-> +-- tanstack.com/
-> ```
+> Updated pages need to be manually reloaded in the browser.
> [!WARNING]
-> Make sure the name of the directory in your local file system matches the name of the project's repo. For example, `tanstack/form` must be cloned into `form` (this is the default) instead of `some-other-name`, because that way, the doc pages won't be found.
+> Update the project's `docs/config.json` if you add a new doc page!
-3. Enter the `tanstack/tanstack.com` directory, install the dependencies and run the app in dev mode:
+## Get Involved
-```sh
-cd tanstack.com
-pnpm i
-# The app will run on https://localhost:3000 by default
