Docs by Hashnode wasn't built in a day. It took months of feedback, community support, and some love! Now it's our turn to give back.
That's why we're offering Docs by Hashnode for free to open source projects. We believe open source can make a big difference, and we want to support that. By offering it for free, we're not just providing a tool, we're investing in the future of open source. It's our way of saying: "Focus on building amazing things. We've got your documentation covered."
Docs by Hashnode can help you build interactive docs with great developer experience. While you focus on the content, Hashnode does the heavy lifting for you. In this free license, we give you the startup plan that includes:
5 seats
Unlimited guides, API references, and custom pages
Custom domain
Ask AI functionality and AI-assisted writing
GitHub sync and

Here’s a tutorial on how you can build docs for your open-source project using all the above-mentioned features:
Sign up at → hshno.de/open-source-license, and our team members will reach out to you with the license within 24 hours.
And hey, to every developer out there who's ever benefited from an open-source tool (which is pretty much all of us, right?), here's a chance to pay it forward. Thank the creators by sharing this article or tagging them in the tweet below.
