Contributing to Documentation

Prowler documentation is built using mkdocs, allowing contributors to easily add or enhance documentation.

Installation and Setup

Install all necessary dependencies using: poetry install --with docs.

1. Install mkdocs using your preferred package manager.

2. Running the Documentation Locally Navigate to the prowler repository folder. Start the local documentation server by running: mkdocs serve. Open http://localhost:8000 in your browser to view live updates.

3. Making Documentation Changes Make all needed changes to docs or add new documents. Edit existing Markdown (.md) files inside prowler/docs. To add new sections or files, update the mkdocs.yaml file located in the root directory of Prowler’s repository.

4. Submitting Changes

Submit a pull request for review.
