Quickstart

Welcome to the Scalar Docs Starter Kit — a template for deploying beautiful documentation from a GitHub repository. Every page is MDX by default: mix Markdown with JSX expressions (this page rendered in 2026) and drop in components anywhere. Fork it, edit the files under docs/content/, and make it yours.

Explore

  • Layouts: hide the sidebar, move search, or build a fully custom landing page
  • Components: Callout, Button, Tabs, and every other component you can drop into MDX
  • API References: add OpenAPI documents from a file, the Scalar Registry, or a URL
