Today we are extremely happy to finally announce Docusaurus 2.0! 🥳️

At Meta Open Source, we believe Docusaurus will help you build the best documentation websites with minimal effort, letting you focus on what really matters: writing the content.

After 4 years of work, 75 alphas and 22 betas, the next generation of Docusaurus is ready for prime time. From now on, we now plan to respect Semantic Versioning and will release major versions more frequently.

After a lengthy alpha stage in order to ensure feature parity and quality, we are excited to officially release the first Docusaurus 2 beta.

With the announcement of this beta, the team is even more confident that Docusaurus 2 is ready for mainstream adoption!

It is with great sadness to announce that our primary external Docusaurus contributor, Endilie Yacop Sucipto (Endi to those who knew him), passed away over the weekend after an illness associated with his bout with cancer.

Docusaurus went live on December 14, 2017. At the time, we had 8 early adopters.

We are very happy to introduce Docusaurus to help you manage one or many open source websites.

We created Docusaurus for the following reasons:

1. To put the focus on writing good documentation instead of worrying about the infrastructure of a website.
2. To provide features that many of our open source websites need like blog support, search and versioning.
3. To make it easy to push updates, new features, and bug fixes to everyone all at once.
4. And, finally, to provide a consistent look and feel across all of our open source projects.
