Our site
We use a variety of tools to make our docs site work. You could use these tools to build up your own docs site and - in most cases - do so for free or starting on a free tier.
Our content lives in a public GitHub repository, cloudflare-docs ↗.
GitHub offers a generous free tier ↗.
We use Algolia ↗ as our search provider.
If you have open-source docs, you can be part of the free DocSearch program ↗.
We use Starlight ↗ for our docs, which is a free, custom documentation theme supported by Astro ↗.
Astro's component overrides ↗ and plugins ↗ system were a big part of us choosing this framework ↗ and have exponentially increased our site's capabilities (without much extra work).
We use GitHub Actions ↗ to build our site, which is then hosted on Cloudflare.
We are moving to Workers CI/CD, which currently runs in the background.
Both of these options include a free tier.
We host our content using Cloudflare Workers, specifically using their built in values for Astro sites
Workers offers a generous free tier.
We send analytics to multiple destinations using Cloudflare Zaraz, which has a generous free tier.
