About

VitePress is a Vue-powered static site generator and successor to VuePress, built on top of the Vite build tool.

It provides a Markdown-first workflow with Vue components, fast development updates through Vite's module system, automatic routing and sidebar generation, support for TypeScript and JSX in Markdown, built-in search indexing, a theming system, and static HTML output with minimal client-side JavaScript.

VuePress is a static site generator based on Vue and Markdown for building documentation and content-focused websites.

It combines Markdown content with Vue components, provides a theme and plugin ecosystem, uses Vue Router for client-side navigation, includes built-in internationalization, and supports server-side rendering and static generation.
