In this section, we will learn about creating two 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 and you should be able to see the new page.
1. Change the text within the `<p>...</p>` to "I can write JSX here!". The browser should refresh automatically to reflect the changes.
```diff
- <p>This is my first page!</p>
+ <p>I can write JSX here!</p>
```
React is being used as a templating engine for rendering static markup. You can leverage on the expressibility 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 `doc4.md`. The `docs` folder is in the root of your Docusaurus project, one level above `website`.
1. Paste the following contents:
```
---
id: doc4
title: This is Doc 4
---
I can write content using [GitHub-flavored Markdown syntax](https://github.github.com/gfm/).
## Markdown Syntax
**Bold** _italic_ `code` [Links](#url)
> Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit. Suspendisse
> id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
* Hey
* Ho
* Let's Go
```
3. The `sidebars.json` is where you specify the order of your documentation pages, so open `website/sidebars.json` and add `"doc4"` after `"doc1"`. This ID should be the same one as in the metadata for the Markdown file above, so if you gave a different ID in Step 2, just make sure to use the same ID in the sidebar file.
```diff
{
"docs": {
"Docusaurus": [
"doc1",
+ "doc4"
],
"First Category": ["doc2"],
"Second Category": ["doc3"]
},
"docs-other": {
"First Category": ["doc4", "doc5"]
}
}
```
4. A server restart is needed to pick up sidebar changes, so kill your dev server (<kbd>Cmd</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd> or <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd>) and restart it with `npm run start`.
1. Navigate to http://localhost:3000/docs/doc4.
You've created your first documentation page on Docusaurus!
