Publishing

A published library is served at https://your-team.docsahoy.eu/library-slug, or on your own domain. Publish and take offline from the Library menu (see Publish it).

What readers get

• Pages rendered on our server and served from a cache: fast on a phone, readable without JavaScript.
• A sidebar with the library's tree, breadcrumbs, an "On this page" list, and a language menu when the library has several languages.
• Search across the library.
• A light and a dark theme, following the reader's device, and a high-contrast variant for readers whose device asks for more contrast.
• No cookies, no tracking scripts, no cookie banner. See Analytics.

What search engines and AI assistants get

• One address per page; old addresses answer with a permanent redirect.
• A title, description and "last updated" date on every page, and structured data search engines read.
• A sitemap.xml and a robots.txt per site.
• Every page as Markdown (the page's address with .md added) and an llms.txt per library. See AI assistants, API and MCP.

A page's description comes from its page settings, or else from its first paragraph.

Visibility settings

In the library's Settings, under Visibility, owners and admins choose:

• Discoverable by search engines. When off, robots.txt asks search engines to stay away, every page says "noindex" and the library is left out of the sitemap. Readers with the address can still read it.
• Open to AI assistants. When off, robots.txt asks AI crawlers to stay away, and the Markdown versions and llms.txt are switched off.
• Show "Published with Docs Ahoy" at the bottom of each page: a link to our website. Depending on your plan, you can switch it off.

Your team's address

Your team address is the first part of the address: your-team.docsahoy.eu. Published documentation lives on docsahoy.eu, a domain that holds only customers' content and is on the Public Suffix List. Browsers and safety services treat every team's site as a separate site, so one team's problems never reach another's.
