UserFrosting Learn Documentation

This repository contains the source for the UserFrosting Learn documentation website — the official documentation hub for UserFrosting.

The site is built on UserFrosting 6 and serves versioned Markdown documentation pages from app/pages/{version}/. The frontend uses Vite and Vue 3 with the Pink Cupcake theme.

Contributing Documentation

Documentation pages live in app/pages/{version}/ as Markdown files (e.g. app/pages/6.0/01.quick-start/docs.md). Folder numeric prefixes control sidebar ordering.

• Standalone pages use docs.md; chapter landing pages use chapter.md
• Images must be stored alongside pages and referenced with an absolute path starting with / (e.g. /images/screenshot.png)
• Internal links use absolute paths without version numbers (e.g. /installation/requirements)
