# Ignite UI Documentation This public repository contains the documentation source for the Ignite UI for Angular, Ignite UI for Blazor, Ignite UI for React, and Ignite UI for Web Components products. They are built and hosted using Astro. ## Prerequisites - [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v22.12.0 or higher - [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) ## Getting Started ```bash git clone https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-documentation.git cd igniteui-documentation npm install ``` ## Project Structure ```text igniteui-documentation/ ├── docs/ │ ├── angular/ # Angular documentation package and generated Angular content │ │ ├── public/ # Angular-specific static assets │ │ ├── scripts/ # Angular sync and generation scripts │ │ └── src/ # Angular Astro pages, MDX content, and components │ └── xplat/ # Shared xplat source for Blazor, React, Web Components, and Angular-generated docs │ ├── public/ # xplat static assets │ ├── scripts/ # xplat generation scripts │ └── src/ # xplat Astro pages, MDX content, assets, and libraries ├── public/ # Shared public assets ├── scripts/ # Repository-level utility scripts ├── src/ # Shared Astro framework, routing, sidebar, content helpers, styles, and integrations ├── package.json # Root workspace and convenience scripts └── tsconfig.json # Root TypeScript configuration ``` ## Running the Documentation Sites The old template-level run commands are obsolete for product documentation. Each documentation package owns its run, build, and preview commands in its own `package.json`. Use the platform-specific commands from the root workspace: | Product | Dev command | --- | --- | | Angular | `npm run angular:dev` | Angular English | `npm run angular:dev:en` | Angular Japanese | `npm run angular:dev:jp` | Angular Korean | `npm run angular:dev:kr` | React | `npm run xplat:dev:react` | React Japanese | `npm run xplat:dev:react:jp` | Web Components | `npm run xplat:dev:webcomponents` | Web Components Japanese | `npm run xplat:dev:webcomponents:jp` | Blazor | `npm run xplat:dev:blazor` | Blazor Japanese | `npm run xplat:dev:blazor:jp` ## Header and footer The Infragistics header and footer come from the marketing site (Marketing-Infragistics), which publishes them at `/assets/chrome/fragment.html`. Both sites (`docs/angular` and `docs/xplat`) render a **snapshot** of it kept in this repo, through igniteui-astro-components' `igChrome()`. Nothing is fetched at build time or at runtime: the chrome's CSS, JS and images are copied into the build and served from `{base}/_ig-chrome/{build}/`. ``` ig-chrome/ staging/ from https://astro-staging.infragistics.com (default builds) production/ from https://www.infragistics.com (`DOCS_ENV=production`) ``` One folder serves both sites: `createDocsSite` in `src/integration.ts` picks `ig-chrome/production` for `DOCS_ENV=production` builds and `ig-chrome/staging` otherwise. - **Japanese builds** keep the legacy chrome fetched from `jp.infragistics.com/navigation` until a Japanese fragment is published. - A missing or invalid snapshot **fails the build**, naming the folder. - **Don't edit `ig-chrome/` by hand.** The marketing site's deploy (its `sync-chrome` job) runs `scripts/chrome-sync.mjs` on what it just deployed and opens a PR here (`chore/sync-header-footer-staging` or `…-production`) when the chrome changed. Review and merge it like any other PR. To sync by hand, run the script locally: ```sh node scripts/chrome-sync.mjs --source https://www.infragistics.com/assets/chrome/fragment.html --out ig-chrome/production node scripts/chrome-sync.mjs --source ../Marketing-Infragistics/dist/assets/chrome/fragment.html --out ig-chrome/staging ``` `--source` takes a fragment URL, or the `fragment.html` of a local marketing build (its `dist/` must hold the images the fragment links). The script validates the fragment, downloads its CSS, JS and images, and writes nothing when the build hash is unchanged (`--force` rewrites anyway; `--allow-missing` skips instead of failing when the fragment returns 404). An unreachable host fails: astro-staging is only reachable from the internal network. See [igniteui-astro-components: The Infragistics header and footer](https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-astro-components#the-infragistics-header-and-footer). ## MDX Components The MDX files currently use these documentation components from `igniteui-astro-components/components/mdx`: | Component | Purpose | | --- | --- | | `ApiLink` | Links to generated API reference entries. | | `DocsAside` | Adds callouts and aside content inside documentation pages. | | `PlatformBlock` | Shows content only for selected platforms. | | `Sample` | Embeds runnable or linked product samples. | ## Checking Relative Links Use the root `check-relative-links` scripts to validate that every relative cross-page link in the MDX source resolves to an existing file. ### Link convention All relative cross-page links must carry the `.mdx` extension. Preferred forms: - `./page.mdx` — same-directory link (explicit relative) - `../folder/page.mdx` — parent-directory link (explicit relative) - `page.mdx` — bare same-directory link (also accepted by the checker) The `.mdx` extension enables editor Go-to-Definition (Ctrl+Click). The `remarkMdLinks` plugin strips the extension and makes the URL absolute at build time. The link checker validates that the target file exists and normalizes bare `page.mdx` links as same-directory relative. ### Angular content pipeline The Angular documentation is assembled from three sources before being checked: 1. **xplat sync** — `docs/xplat/src/content/` is generated into platform-specific output and then copied into `docs/angular/src/content/` by the sync scripts. 2. **Grid generation** — `docs/angular/src/content/en/grids_templates/` and `jp/grids_templates/` are template files shared across all four grid types (Grid, TreeGrid, HierarchicalGrid, PivotGrid). `generate.mjs` expands them into the individual component pages under `docs/angular/src/content/en/components/grid/`, `treegrid/`, `hierarchicalgrid/`, and `pivotGrid/`. These template directories are excluded from link checking (same as xplat `_shared/`). 3. **Link check** — the checker scans the fully assembled `docs/angular/src/content/` tree. The check must run **after** both steps above, otherwise it scans stale or incomplete files and misses links that only exist in generated output. > **xplat:** The checker scans both `docs/xplat/src/content/` (source) and the `docs/xplat/generated/React|WebComponents|Blazor` trees, so a broken link usually surfaces once per source file plus once per generated platform copy. `docs/xplat/generated/` is gitignored build output, fix the link in the source file and regenerate; never edit the generated copies. ### Commands The preferred command to replicate the exact CI pipeline locally: ```bash npm run check-relative-links:ci ``` This runs the full chain in order: 1. Sync xplat → angular (en) 2. Sync xplat → angular (jp) 3. Generate angular grid pages (en) 4. Generate angular grid pages (jp) 5. Generate xplat React + WC + Blazor pages (en) — expands `_shared/` templates and rewrites `_shared/` paths in output 6. Generate xplat React + WC + Blazor pages (jp) 7. Check xplat links (source `docs/xplat/src/content/` + `docs/xplat/generated/`) 8. Check angular links > **Note:** The generate scripts rewrite `../_shared/X.mdx` → `./X.mdx` (and `./_shared/X.mdx` → `./grid/X.mdx`) in the generated output so links in the expanded files resolve correctly. Other available commands: | Scope | Command | |---|---| | Full CI simulation (preferred) | `npm run check-relative-links:ci` | | Both trees, no setup (skips the generate steps) | `npm run check-relative-links` | | Full pipeline, combined report to file | `npm run check-relative-links:report` | To check a single tree without running the generate steps, call the script directly with `--platform` (`angular`, `xplat`, `react`, `wc`, or `blazor`): ```bash node scripts/check-relative-links.mjs --platform=angular node scripts/check-relative-links.mjs --platform=xplat --md=reports/relative-links-report.md ``` Note that this skips generation, so it scans whatever is currently on disk. Use `check-relative-links:ci` when the generated output may be stale. The checker exits with code 1 on any broken link and prints each failure with a reason code: | Reason | Meaning | |---|---| | `[not found]` | Target file does not exist | | `[add .mdx extension]` | Link is `./page` — has `./` prefix but is missing the `.mdx` extension | | `[use ./page.mdx instead]` | Link is `(page)` — bare path with no extension and no `./` prefix | ## Checking HTML Links The relative-link checker works on MDX source. To validate the links in a **built** site instead, use the `check-html-links` scripts. They crawl every `.html` file under `dist/`, extract the internal doc links, and verify each target page exists in the same `dist` tree. This catches breakage introduced by the build itself, so it requires a completed build. | Scope | Command | |---|---| | Crawl `dist/` | `npm run check-html-links` | | Crawl `dist/`, report to file | `npm run check-html-links:report` | Pass `--dist=` to scope the crawl to one built site: ```bash node scripts/check-html-links.mjs --dist=dist/angular ``` ## Checking MDX API Links Use the root `check-mdx-links` scripts to validate `ApiLink` references: | Scope | Command | |---|---| | All MDX sources | `npm run check-mdx-links` | | Angular docs | `npm run check-mdx-links:angular` | | React xplat docs | `npm run check-mdx-links:react` | | Web Components xplat docs | `npm run check-mdx-links:wc` | | Blazor xplat docs | `npm run check-mdx-links:blazor` | | Markdown reports | `npm run check-mdx-links:report:<platform>` | | Resolve-only broken-link reports | `npm run check-mdx-links:broken:<platform>` | These scripts also check for ambiguous `ApiLink` references. If a symbol exists in more than one registry package and the link does not specify enough information to choose safely, the script prints an `Ambiguous ApiLinks` section, writes an `api-link-ambiguity-report*.md` file under `reports/`, and exits with a failure. For authoring fixes, follow the [canonical ApiLink skill](.github/skills/xplat-docs-api-links/SKILL.md). See [API-LINK-WORKFLOW.md](API-LINK-WORKFLOW.md) for checker operation and report interpretation. ## Checking LLM Metadata English and Japanese topics use `llms.description` to provide concise page summaries in the generated `llms.txt` indexes. Validate all author-owned source topics with: ```bash npm run check:llms-metadata ``` The check is read-only and reports the source file and line for missing or malformed metadata. See [.github/CONTRIBUTING.md](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#llm-metadata) for contributor guidance and the [frontmatter skill](.agents/skills/igniteui-topic-frontmatter/SKILL.md) for metadata rules. ## Content Locations - Angular content lives under `docs/angular/src/content/<locale>/`. - Shared xplat content lives under `docs/xplat/src/content/<locale>/`. - Cross-platform topics are also generated into the Angular tree at build time (by `docs/angular/scripts/sync-generated.mjs`) and are therefore **not committed** under `docs/angular/` — they are gitignored, and editing those Angular copies has no effect. Edit the xplat source instead. See [.github/CONTRIBUTING.md](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#updating-of-data-visualization-related-topics). - Static images and assets are stored in the nearest product package when product-specific, or in the root `public/` directory when shared. ## Collaboration Docs - [.github/CONTRIBUTING.md](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md): day-to-day editing, generated-content behavior, and report expectations. - [API-LINK-WORKFLOW.md](API-LINK-WORKFLOW.md): API registry flow, `ApiLink` resolution, ambiguity handling, and checker commands. ## Contributing Open a pull request against this repository and request review from the documentation team.
