Docus is a documentation site generator built on Nuxt that lets you write docs in Markdown with Vue components.
The tool solves the problem of creating professional documentation sites quickly by providing a pre-configured Nuxt project with a modern theme, responsive design, and built-in features like dark mode, search, and internationalization support. You write content as Markdown files in a content folder, and Docus renders them as a complete documentation site with a clean, customizable design powered by Nuxt UI and Tailwind CSS.
Docus suits teams and projects that want documentation up and running without extensive configuration. It works well for projects of any size that need multi-language support, since it includes native i18n with over twenty locales for the UI. The tool distinguishes itself through its AI capabilities: it includes an embedded chat assistant that answers questions from your docs and cites sources, exposes a Model Context Protocol server for integration with editor tools like Cursor and VS Code, and can publish agent skills discoverable by AI systems. It also automatically generates LLM-ready files and Open Graph images for SEO. The project is built on Nuxt 4, Nuxt Content for file-based content management, and Nuxt UI 4 for components.
The project maintains active development with regular updates to its core dependencies and features. The codebase is written in TypeScript and shows consistent attention to performance optimization and modern web standards. Development activity includes ongoing refinement of the AI integration features and the documentation theme layer.
