Prowler documentation is built using [Mintlify](https://www.mintlify.com/docs), allowing contributors to easily add or enhance documentation.
## Installation and Setup
## Documentation Structure
The Prowler documentation is organized into several sections. The main ones are:
- **Getting Started**: Provides an overview of the Prowler platform and its different solutions, including Prowler Cloud/App, Prowler CLI, Prowler MCP Server, Prowler Hub, and Prowler Lighthouse AI. This section helps new users understand which Prowler solution best fits their needs and includes product comparisons.
- **Guides**: Contains practical tutorials and how-to guides organized by product (Prowler Cloud/App, CLI) and provider (AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Microsoft 365, GitHub, etc.). This section covers authentication, integrations, compliance, and advanced usage scenarios.
- **Developer Guide**: Documentation for contributors looking to extend Prowler functionality. This includes guides on creating providers, services, checks, output formats, integrations, and compliance frameworks. Provider-specific implementation details and testing strategies are also covered here.
- **Troubleshooting**: Common issues, error messages, and their solutions. This section helps users resolve problems encountered during installation, configuration, or execution.
## AI-Driven Documentation
As mentioned in the [Introduction](/developer-guide/introduction#ai-driven-contributions), we have specialized resources to enhance AI-driven development.
This includes the [AGENTS.md](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/blob/master/docs/AGENTS.md) file that contains the guidelines and style guide for the AI agents in the Prowler documentation.
