Who We Are

ProperDocs is a group of people who have the goal of maintaining the Legacy of the original MkDocs project.

Our History

The project and Organisation was created in March of 2026 when it became clear to many that the original MkDocs 1.x would not receive any important fixes and updates.
Instead a focus on a "version 2" was put, which would break pre-existing ecosystems using any MkDocs Plugins and original themes.
Given these circumstances, the mkdocs-community Organisation was created and later renamed to ProperDocs.

Our Goals

The Goal of ProperDocs is to preserve MkDocs 1.x and its feature set, allowing you to keep using your themes and plugins without any fear of them breaking in the future.

While the current focus is primarily on bugfixes rather than big features, we always welcome contributions made by the Community.
