Rancher Docs is a documentation repository for Rancher products and related Kubernetes tools.
The repository serves as the central source for documentation covering multiple Rancher versions and related projects. It provides a structured approach to maintaining product documentation with a live-updating development server that allows contributors to preview changes locally before submission. The documentation is organized by product and version, with users able to navigate between different Rancher releases through a card-based interface.
Contributors should be aware that documentation for specific components has been decentralized. Rancher Manager documentation has moved to a separate repository, and K3s documentation is maintained in its own dedicated repository. This means that issues and pull requests related to those products should be directed to their respective repositories rather than submitted here. The tool provides a Docker-based development environment that runs on standard ports and supports customization, making it accessible for local editing workflows on both Linux and Windows systems.
The project maintains a structured codebase with SCSS as a primary language component, indicating a focus on styled documentation presentation. Development activity shows ongoing maintenance of the documentation infrastructure and support for multiple product versions simultaneously.
