## Writing Documentation
|
|
|
|
Documentation pages are generated from Markdown files in `contents/`.
|
|
The files are organized in 4 sections/folders (getting-started, properties,
|
|
examples, contributing) which are dynamically listed on the docs overview page.
|
|
The Markdown files should contain a header with metadata.
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
---
|
|
path: "docs/flexDirection"
|
|
title: "Flex Direction"
|
|
hasPlayground: true
|
|
initialPlayground: eyJ3aWR0aCI6IjYwMCIsImhlaWdodCI6NTAwLCJjaGlsZHJlbiI6W3t9LHt9LHt9XX0=

|
- The `path` indicates the URL path this page will be available at.
|
|
- The `title` is used as the page's HTML-title and when referencing
|
|
the file from the documentation overview.
|
|
- The `hasPlayground` property indicates whether this documentation
|
|
has an associated playground to test out the documented feature.
|
|
- The `initialPlayground` property is only relevant for documentation
|
|
pages with playgrounds and contains the initial playground state.
|
|
This base64 string is a reference to the hash (content after #)
|
|
of a [playground](/playground) url.
|
|
|
|
Within the markdown of a documentation page which has an associated
|
|
playground you can add controls to let the user play around with the feature
|
|
directly from the documenation page.
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
<controls prop="alignContent"></controls>
|
|
```
