In this section we will learn about creating two new types of pages in Docusaurus, a regular page and a documentation page.

## Creating a Regular Page

1. Go into the `pages/en` directory and create a file called `hello-world.js` with the following contents:

```
const React = require('react');

const CompLibrary = require('../../core/CompLibrary.js');

const Container = CompLibrary.Container;
const GridBlock = CompLibrary.GridBlock;

function HelloWorld(props) {
  return (
    <div className="docMainWrapper wrapper">
      <Container className="mainContainer documentContainer postContainer">
        <h1>Hello World!</h1>
        <p>This is my first page!</p>
      </Container>
    </div>
  );
}

module.exports = HelloWorld;
```

2. Go to http://localhost:3000/hello-world (TODO) and you should be able to see the new page.
1. Change the text within the `<p>...</p>` to "I'm at F8!". The browser should refresh automatically to reflect the changes.

React is being used as a templating engine for rendering static markup. You can leverage on the expressability of React to build rich web content. Learn more about creating pages [here](custom-pages).

## Create a Documentation Page

1. Create a new file in the `docs` folder called `f8.md`.
1. Paste the following contents:

```
---
id: f8
title: Hello F8
---

Hello F8! I'm at the Docusaurus classroom session!

## Using Docusaurus to Create Open Source Websites

In this session, we learned how Docusaurus makes it really simple to create a website for open source project documentation and get hands on by creating a Docusaurus website.
```

3. Go to `sidebars.json` and add `"f8"` after `"doc1"`.

```diff
{
  "docs": {
+    "Docusaurus": ["doc1", "f8"],
-    "Docusaurus": ["doc1"],
    "First Category": ["doc2"],
    "Second Category": ["doc3"]
  },
  "docs-other": {
    "First Category": ["doc4", "doc5"]
  }
}
```

4. Navigate to http://localhost:3000/docs/f8. (TODO)

You've created your first documentation page on Docusaurus! The `sidebars.json` is where you specify the order of your documentation pages and in the front matter of the Markdown file is where you provide metadata about that page.
