CS Documentation Site
Comprehensive documentation platform for computer science courses
Technologies Used
Overview
A modern documentation platform built to serve computer science course materials with advanced search capabilities, interactive code examples, and version control integration.
The platform supports MDX for rich content creation, allowing educators to embed interactive components, code playgrounds, and assessments directly within documentation pages.
Features include dark mode support, mobile-responsive design, and accessibility compliance to ensure all students can effectively access course materials.
The Challenge
Build a fast, searchable documentation system that could handle extensive course materials across multiple programming languages while remaining easy for non-technical educators to update.
The Solution
Implemented a static site generator using Next.js and MDX, integrated Algolia for instant search across all content, and created a Git-based workflow allowing educators to update content through simple markdown files.
Impact
Reduced time-to-find information by 70% according to user surveys. Serves 5,000+ daily active users with sub-second page loads globally. Documentation update time reduced from hours to minutes.
