Migrate to Starport
Moving your docs onto Starport is a fully managed migration. Promptless does the work: it stands up the site and moves your content and configuration. You review the result and cut over to the new site when you are ready, then maintain the site yourself after onboarding. For the fundamentals of docs-as-code and platform choice, see Understand docs-as-code and Choose a platform.
What Promptless handles
Section titled “What Promptless handles”Promptless handles the migration end to end, so your team keeps writing while it happens around you.
-
Promptless bootstraps your site on the Starport template.
-
Promptless migrates your content, components, screenshots, and configuration onto it.
-
Promptless optimizes your docs for agent accessibility, so the agent-ready surfaces work from day one.
-
Promptless readies the site for launch, so your team can cut over when you are ready.
What Promptless needs from you
Section titled “What Promptless needs from you”The managed migration needs a few things from you:
- Access to your existing documentation content.
- Your Git repository, or Promptless sets one up with you.
- Control of your domain’s DNS. You point it at the new site when you cut over; Promptless does not change your DNS records.
What you keep
Section titled “What you keep”Your content stays yours. It lives in a Git repository your team owns, as Markdown and MDX source files you can edit at any time. You keep the full history, the access control, and the ability to publish directly. Promptless sets up the build, deploy, and content-maintenance tooling around that repository.
Because your content lives in your own Git repository on the open-source Astro Starlight framework, you keep it if you stop using Promptless. The site keeps building and serving on its own, and nothing about it depends on Promptless-proprietary technology.
URLs and redirects
Section titled “URLs and redirects”When URLs change during the move, Promptless sets up redirects so existing links keep working. For the fundamentals, see Preserve URLs and redirects.
After onboarding
Section titled “After onboarding”Once you are live, the site is yours to run. You tune it yourself through its configuration files; see Configure your Starport site for the options you own. Promptless keeps your content current as your product changes; see Keep your Starport docs current for how that works.
Every annual Promptless plan includes migration to Starport at no cost. Your content moves onto the Starport stack as part of your plan.
