What is ShipAny Docs?
ShipAny Docs is a standalone documentation site template built on Fumadocs and TanStack Start. You write Markdown (MDX) files and get a polished docs site with sidebar navigation, full-text search, dark mode and English/Chinese support out of the box.
It is designed to be deployed separately from your main product — at docs.yourdomain.com or under a path such as /docs. The ShipAny documentation itself runs on this template.
Who it's for
- SaaS products that need user docs
- Developer tools and APIs
- Teams publishing docs in English and Chinese
- Companies documenting several products in one site
Key features
MDX content
Every .mdx file under content/docs becomes a page, with frontmatter for titles, descriptions and sidebar order.
Bilingual by convention
page.mdx is English and page.zh.mdx is its Chinese twin; the language switcher and URLs follow automatically.
Full-text search
Built-in Orama search that also handles Chinese content.
Brand and theme in minutes
Set the name, logo and links with env vars, and paste any shadcn or tweakcn theme into one CSS file.
Multi-product ready
An optional sidebar dropdown switches between products in a single docs site.
Deploy anywhere
Run it on a Node server, Cloudflare Workers or Docker.

FAQ
Do I need a ShipAny SaaS template to use ShipAny Docs?
No. ShipAny Docs is a standalone site that works for any product.
Can I add languages other than English and Chinese?
English and Chinese are configured by default; the i18n setup follows Fumadocs conventions, so additional locales can be added in code.
Can it live under my main domain, like /docs?
Yes. Deploy it on a subdomain or route a path such as /docs to it — shipany.ai/docs works this way.
