So i came across Docusaurus at work and wanted to understand it better. Also I wanted some where I could document what I learnt when coding. Plus I want somewhere I could quickly reference pieces of code which I can use day to day that I know work.

I have used a number of things to blog in the past including wordpress and static websites and nothing seems to make it easy. So I am hoping this will help. The source code is hosted on GitHub and when a commit or branched merged into main, it automatic's get to deployed to this site, i am using a nodejs hosting provider Vercel

Docusaurus is created as a open source project by Facebook. It written in nodeJS and is simple to installed on windows and linux.

Ensure you have the latest version of Node installed. We also recommend you install Yarn as well.

Follow these step to get a local copy installed on your PC and the pages are just Mark Down files.

Also i am using this plugin for [Search]9https://github.com/gabrielcsapo/docusaurus-plugin-search-local)
