Add Documentation Page

Create new documentation pages for the Coolify docs (guides, tutorials, KB articles, troubleshooting).

When NOT to Use This Skill

Use adding-service-documentation instead for:

• Service pages in docs/services/
• One-click services from Coolify's catalog

Services use a frontmatter-driven generation pipeline (the listing and all.md are regenerated from each service page's frontmatter) and have specific logo handling — covered by that skill.

Quick Start

1. Create file in the appropriate section directory
2. Add frontmatter with title and description
3. Write content with clear headings
4. Update sidebar in docs/.vitepress/config.mts (if needed)
5. Add images using <ZoomableImage> component

Documentation Sections

Section	Path	Content Type
Get Started	docs/get-started/	Introduction, installation, basics
Applications	docs/applications/	Framework deployment guides
Databases	docs/databases/	Database deployment docs
Knowledge Base	docs/knowledge-base/	How-tos, concepts, guides
Troubleshoot	docs/troubleshoot/	Problem-solution articles
Integrations	docs/integrations/	Third-party integration guides

Required Frontmatter

---
title: "Page Title"
description: "SEO-friendly description (used in meta tags)."
---

File Naming

• Use lowercase kebab-case: my-guide.md
• Be descriptive but concise

Detailed References

Page-specific:

• TEMPLATES.md - Ready-to-use page templates
• SIDEBAR.md - How to update sidebar configuration

Shared guidelines:

• FRONTMATTER.md - Title, description, Open Graph
• IMAGES.md - Image syntax and optimization
• LINKS.md - Internal and external link formatting
• CONTAINERS.md - VitePress callout containers

Key Rules

1. Images:
   • Small images/icons: use standard markdown ![alt](path)
   • Screenshots/large images: use <ZoomableImage> component
   • Format: .webp preferred, absolute paths (/docs/images/...)
2. Links: Internal use absolute paths; external add ?utm_source=coolify.io
3. Sidebar: Update docs/.vitepress/config.mts (starts ~line 130)

Verification

• Frontmatter has title and description
• Screenshots use <ZoomableImage>
• External links have UTM parameters
• Page added to sidebar (if applicable)
• Renders at http://localhost:5173/docs/[path]
