# Material for MkDocs Configurator

![Screenshot of Material for MkDocs Configurator](website.png)

## Motivation

This tool provides an intuitive interface for configuring your Material for MkDocs site without having to manually edit the config. It allows you to:

- Visually customize your Material for MkDocs theme
- Preview changes in real-time
- Export your configuration as a ready-to-use `mkdocs.yml` file
- Save time on theme configuration and focus on your documentation content

I found that, while an excellent and thorough reference, the Material for MkDocs documentation sometimes is a bit
_too much_, as in:

- There might be features useful to you within Material for MkDocs, but you never come across them in the docs.
- There might be some incompatibilities between available features

This configuration UI surfaces all available options, plugins, and features grouped by category, and takes care
of racing conditions or incompatibilities.

> [!NOTE]
> **This project is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Material for MkDocs in any way.** It is an independent tool created to help users configure their Material for MkDocs sites more easily.
