### Key Files
|

|
||||
* **Footer**: The `website/core/Footer.js` file is a React component that acts
|
||||
as the footer for the site generated by Docusaurus and should be customized by the user.
|
||||
* **Configuration file**: The `website/siteConfig.js` file is the main
|
||||
configuration file used by Docusaurus.
|
||||
* **Sidebars**: The `sidebars.json` file contains the structure and order
|
||||
of the documentation files.

## Preparation Notes
|
||||
|
||||
You will need to keep the `website/siteConfig.js` and `website/core/Footer.js` files but may edit them as you wish. The value of the `customDocsPath` key in `website/siteConfig.js` can be modified if you wish to use a different directory name or path. The `website` directory can also be renamed to anything you want it to be.
|
||||
|
||||
However, you should keep the `website/pages` and `website/static` directories. You may change the content inside them as you wish. At the bare minimum, you should have an `en/index.js` or `en/index.html` file inside `website/pages` and an image to use as your header icon inside `website/static`.
|
||||
|
||||
If your directory does not yet have a `.gitignore`, we generate it with the necessary ignored files listed. As a general rule, you should ignore all `node_modules`, build files, system files (`.DS_Store`), logs, etc. [Here](https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/Node.gitignore) is a more comprehensive list of what is normally ignored for Node.js projects.
