my-docs/ ├── content/ # Your markdown content │ ├── index.md # Homepage │ └── docs/ # Documentation pages ├── public/ # Static assets └── package.json # Dependencies and scripts 

Docus uses a layer system, you can go further and use any feature or file of a classical Nuxt project:

my-docs/ ├── app.config.ts # App configuration ├── nuxt.config.ts # Nuxt configuration (add extra modules, components, etc.) ├── app/ # App directory │ ├── components/ # Components (add your own components) │ ├── layouts/ # Layouts (add your own layouts) │ └── pages/ # Pages (add your own pages) └── server/ # Server-side code (add your own server-side code) 

Single language structure:

content/ ├── index.md ├── getting-started.md └── guide/ ├── introduction.md └── configuration.md 

Multi-language structure (with i18n):

content/ ├── en/ │ ├── index.md │ └── guide/ │ └── introduction.md └── fr/ ├── index.md └── guide/ └── introduction.md 

Your project comes pre-configured with the best of the Nuxt ecosystem:

• Nuxt 4 - The web framework
• Nuxt Content - File-based CMS
• Nuxt UI Pro - Premium UI components
• Nuxt Image - Optimized images
• Tailwind CSS 4 - Utility-first CSS
• Docus Layer - Documentation theme
• Nuxt i18n - Internationalization
