​
Tabs

Tabs help distinguish between different topics or sections of your documentation.

docs.json
"navigation": {
  "tabs": [
    {
      "tab": "API References",
      "pages": [
        "api-reference/get",
        "api-reference/post",
        "api-reference/delete"
      ]
    },
    {
      "tab": "SDKs",
      "pages": [
        "sdk/fetch",
        "sdk/create",
        "sdk/delete",
      ]
    },
    {
      "tab": "Blog",
      "href": "https://external-link.com/blog"
    }
  ]
}

​
Anchors

Anchors are another way to section your content. They show up on top of your side navigation.

The configuration is very similar to the tab configuration. We highly recommend that you set an icon field as well. Valid icon values include all named Font Awesome and Lucide icons.

docs.json
"navigation": {
  "anchors": [
    {
      "anchor": "Documentation",
      "icon": "book-open",
      "pages": [
        "quickstart",
        "development",
        "navigation"
      ]
    }
    {
      "anchor": "API References",
      "icon": "sqaure-terminal",
      "pages": [
        "api-reference/get",
        "api-reference/post",
        "api-reference/delete"
      ]
    }
    {
      "anchor": "Blog",
      "href": "https://external-link.com/blog"
    }
  ]
}

Dropdowns show up in the same place as anchors, but are consolidated into a single dropdown. We also recommend that you set an icon for each dropdown item (from Font Awesome or Lucide).

docs.json
"navigation": {
  "dropdowns": [
    {
      "dropdown": "Documentation",
      "icon": "book-open",
      "pages": [
        "quickstart",
        "development",
        "navigation"
      ]
    }
    {
      "dropdown": "API References",
      "icon": "sqaure-terminal",
      "pages": [
        "api-reference/get",
        "api-reference/post",
        "api-reference/delete"
      ]
    }
    {
      "dropdown": "Blog",
      "href": "https://external-link.com/blog"
    }
  ]
}

​
Nested Hierarchy

You can use any combination of anchors, tabs, and dropdowns - either one can be nested within each other interchangeably.

{
  "navigation": {
    "anchors": [
      {
        "anchor": "Anchor 1",
        "groups": [
          {
            "group": "Group 1",
            "pages": [
              "some-folder/file-1",
              "another-folder/file-2"
              "just-a-file"
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
      {
        "anchor": "Anchor 2",
        "groups": [
          {
            "group": "Group 2",
            "pages": [
              "some-other-folder/file-1",
              "various-different-folders/file-2",
              "another-file"
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}
