Read the Docs: Documentation Simplified
We are an open source project providing the tools, knowledge and hosting for some of the world's top teams' documentation.
Mission
Technical teams rely on up-to-date documentation and require solid methods and tools to help creating continuous documentation that will improve team efficiency and productivity.
Our mission is to develop those tools and help shape the methods that will make high-quality documentation part of the normal development workflow.
Growth
Read the Docs has grown substantially since its beginning as a weekend project and is closing in on being a top-1000 site on the internet.
Today, we serve over 55 million pages of documentation a month, serve over 40 TB of documentation a month, host over 80,000 open source projects and support over 100,000 users
Community
Read the Docs is open source and community supported. It depends on users like you to contribute to development, support, and operations. You can learn more about how to contribute in our docs. Thanks so much to our wonderful community team who helps us run the site. Read the Docs wouldn't be possible without them.
Hosting for the project is graciously provided by AWS.
