Deploy a Docusaurus Static Site – Render Docs

Deploy a Docusaurus Static Site

Docusaurus is a great way to build documentation websites for your projects, and you can deploy a Docusaurus site on Render in under a minute.

Your site is served over a lightning-fast global CDN, comes with fully managed TLS certificates, and supports custom domains out of the box.

  1. Create a new Static Site on Render, and give Render permission to access your Docusaurus repo.

  2. Use the following values during creation:

Build Command yarn install; yarn build
Publish Directory ./build

projectName above is the value you defined in docusaurus.config.js as shown below.

const siteConfig = {
     title: 'Docusaurus Example', // Title for your website.
     tagline: 'Fast and easy deployment on Render',
     url: 'https://docusaurus.onrender.com', // Your website URL
     baseUrl: '/', // Base URL for your project */
     // Used for publishing and more
     projectName: 'your-project-name',
     // ...
}

That's it! Your app will be live on your Render URL as soon as the build finishes.

See Specifying a Node Version if you need to customize the version of Node.js used for your site.
