Choosing the Right Setup for Your Workspace

When setting up your workspace in DocStar, you can choose how you want to organize and publish your content. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide which option fits best for your needs.


#

Documentation

Best for:
Teams that want to create guides, FAQs, tutorials, or internal knowledge bases.

Use this if you want to:

  • Build product documentation or onboarding guides.

  • Create internal or customer-facing help centers.

  • Organize structured content without technical complexity.

Example use cases:

  • Product manuals

  • Employee handbooks

  • Knowledge base articles


#

Documentation + API

Best for:
Developer-focused Workspace that need to document APIs alongside guides.

Use this if you want to:

  • Combine general documentation with interactive API references.

  • Help developers integrate with your product easily.

  • Showcase code examples, endpoints, and request/response samples.

Example use cases:

  • Developer portals

  • API reference sites

  • Technical documentation for SDKs

Still not sure?

If your project primarily focuses on user guides or tutorials, start with Documentation.
If your product includes an API, SDK, or developer tools, choose Documentation + API — you can always expand or switch later.
