<p>Laradock uses <a href="https://gohugo.io/">Hugo</a> as website generator tool, with the <a href="http://themes.gohugo.io/theme/material-docs/">Material Docs theme</a>. You might need to check their docs quickly.</p>
<p>Go the <code>DOCUMENTATION/_settings/content</code> and search for the markdown file you want to edit (every folder represents a section in the menu).</p>
<p>To edit the sidebar or add a new section, you need to edit this file <code>DOCUMENTATION/_settings/config.toml</code> as well.</p>
<p><em>The site will be autogenerated in the <code>docs/</code> folder by <a href="https://travis-ci.com/">Travis</a>.</em></p>
<h3 id="to-host-the-website-locally">To Host the website locally</h3>
<li>When you finish editing, go to <code>DOCUMENTATION/_settings/</code> and run the <code>hugo</code> command to generate the HTML docs (inside new <code>/docs</code> folder).</li>
<li><p>Open the software (container) folder.</p></li>
<li><p>Edit the files you want to update.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Note:</strong> If you want to edit the base image of the <code>Workspace</code> or the <code>php-fpm</code> Containers,
you need to edit their Docker-files from their GitHub repositories. For more info read their Dockerfiles comment on the Laradock repository.</p></li>
