| 26 | +- Editing the docs locally and previewing the changes |
| 27 | + - The documentations for all the TanStack projects are hosted on [tanstack.com](https://tanstack.com), which is a TanStack Start application (https://github.com/TanStack/tanstack.com). You need to run this app locally to preview your changes in the `TanStack/router` docs. |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +> [!NOTE] |
| 30 | +> The website fetches the doc pages from GitHub in production, and searches for them at `../router/docs` in development. Your local clone of `TanStack/router` needs to be in the same directory as the local clone of `TanStack/tanstack.com`. |
| 31 | +
|
| 32 | +You can follow these steps to set up the docs for local development: |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +1. Make a new directory called `tanstack`. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +```sh |
| 37 | +mkdir tanstack |
| 38 | +``` |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +2. Enter that directory and clone the [`TanStack/router`](https://github.com/TanStack/router) and [`TanStack/tanstack.com`](https://github.com/TanStack/tanstack.com) repos. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +```sh |
| 43 | +cd tanstack |
| 44 | +git clone [email protected]:TanStack/router.git |
| 45 | +# We probably don't need all the branches and commit history |
| 46 | +# from the `tanstack.com` repo, so let's just create a shallow |
| 47 | +# clone of the latest version of the `main` branch. |
| 48 | +# Read more about shallow clones here: |
| 49 | +# https://github.blog/2020-12-21-get-up-to-speed-with-partial-clone-and-shallow-clone/#user-content-shallow-clones |
| 50 | +git clone [email protected]:TanStack/tanstack.com.git --depth=1 --single-branch --branch=main |
| 51 | +``` |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +> [!NOTE] |
| 54 | +> Your `tanstack` directory should look like this: |
| 55 | +> |
| 56 | +> ``` |
| 57 | +> tanstack/ |
| 58 | +> | |
| 59 | +> +-- router/ (<-- this directory cannot be called anything else!) |
| 60 | +> | |
| 61 | +> +-- tanstack.com/ |
| 62 | +> ``` |
| 63 | +
|
| 64 | +3. Enter the `tanstack/tanstack.com` directory, install the dependencies and run the app in dev mode: |
| 65 | +
|
| 66 | +```sh |
| 67 | +cd tanstack.com |
| 68 | +pnpm i |
| 69 | +# The app will run on https://localhost:3000 by default |
| 70 | +pnpm dev |
| 71 | +``` |
| 72 | +
|
| 73 | +4. Now you can visit http://localhost:3000/router/latest/docs/framework/react/overview in the browser and see the changes you make in `tanstack/router/docs` there. |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +> [!WARNING] |
| 76 | +> You will need to update the `docs/(router or start)config.json` file (in `TanStack/router`) if you add a new documentation page! |
| 77 | +
|
| 78 | +You can see the whole process in the screen capture below: |
