title	Documentation Contributions

We understand that as we move quickly, sometimes our documentation website can be a bit outdated. Therefore, we highly value contributions to our documentation.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20.x or later

Contributing to the Documentation

First, head over to the [CopilotKit repository](https://github.com/CopilotKit/CopilotKit) and create a fork.

Then, clone your fork to your local machine:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/CopilotKit
cd CopilotKit/docs
```

To run the documentation website locally, simply run: ```bash npx mintlify dev ```

This will open a new browser window with the documentation website.

Now, you can make your changes to the documentation website.

- All documentation-related files are located in the `docs` repository
- `mint.json` contains the configuration for the Mintlify documentation site

<Tip>
  For non-trivial documentation changes, we highly recommend reading the [Mintlify documentation](https://mintlify.com/docs/quickstart) to undertand how Mintlify works.
