Introduction
Welcome to Lark
Lark is the open-source documentation platform that looks better than Mintlify. Built for developers who give a damn about design.
Why Lark?
Most docs platforms force you into their cloud, their themes, their pricing. Lark gives you:
- Full control — self-host or deploy anywhere
- Beautiful defaults — themes that don’t look like Bootstrap 2015
- Fast builds — Hugo + Tailwind = static speed
- Customizable — change colors, fonts, spacing in the browser
How it works
Lark uses the same architecture as the best docs sites on the web:
- Write content in Markdown
- Structure it with front matter (
group,slug,toc) - Build with Hugo
- Deploy to Cloudflare Pages in seconds
