Product documentation
Documentation without DevOps means you publish public docs without owning servers, build pipelines, or production access for the doc site. Hosted.md runs the stack. You write and ship content. One flat price per site. No deployment or maintenance on your side.
For many software teams, the product already consumes engineering time. Adding a self hosted doc stack means someone owns builds, hosting, SSL, and incident response for another surface. That is often the wrong trade for a small team.
Docs without DevOps is another way to say you want the outcome, not the job title. The same idea shows up when people ask for documentation without infrastructure: less operational work, more time for writing and shipping the product.
When you evaluate options, separate the writing workflow from the production path. You care about both, but they are not the same problem.
If the main pain is build steps and releases, read documentation without deployment for that angle. DevOps work often spans hosting and deployment together.
Self hosted docs and DIY setups push the same classes of work onto your team. A hosted setup moves most of that to the provider.
You run the doc stack
Hosted.md runs the doc site
Hosted.md is hosted docs for small teams who want public product documentation with one flat price per site, optional Git integration, and no maintenance of our hosting stack on your side. Custom domain support is available after trial.
Fully hosted
We run the infrastructure that serves your docs. You do not provision servers or own production access for the doc host.
One flat price per site
A single rate per documentation site. No per seat pricing, no usage tiers, no feature gates.
Optional Git integration
Connect a repository to sync content, or manage pages inside Hosted.md without Git.
Built in search
Help users find answers across your public documentation without extra plugins.
Custom domain after trial
Start on a hosted.md subdomain. Connect your own domain when you are ready.
SSL included
HTTPS by default on hosted.md subdomains and custom domains.
No deployment work from you
Create your site, add content or connect a repo, and publish. You are not responsible for our deploy pipeline or hosting maintenance.
For structure and writing habits, see the guides section.
Hosted.md is narrow on purpose. It is not trying to replace every documentation product.
A small table to judge whether the Hosted.md model matches what you need from docs without DevOps.
| Question | Hosted.md |
|---|---|
| Hosted public documentation | Yes |
| You run servers or clusters for the doc site | No |
| You own the doc deploy pipeline | No |
| One flat price per documentation site | Yes |
It means you do not run infrastructure, pipelines, or production operations for the documentation site. You still write and publish content. Someone else hosts the public site.
Deployment is one slice of the problem. DevOps usually covers a wider set of responsibilities around hosting and operations. Many teams care about both, which is why those pages pair well together.
No. The service is built so you can publish docs without owning the hosting stack.
One flat price per documentation site. See the pricing page for details.
No. Git integration is optional. You can connect a repo or manage documentation directly in Hosted.md.
Hosted.md is relaunching soon. Get notified when it is ready.
