Blume is an open-source, zero-config documentation framework built on Astro and Vite that turns a folder of Markdown/MDX files into a production-grade docs site with navigation, search, theming, and SEO out of the box. It is AI-ready with llms.txt generation, raw Markdown endpoints, an Ask AI assistant, and a hosted MCP server, and can be ejected to a standalone Astro app for full control.

Use cases

• build a documentation site from markdown files
• create zero-config docs for an open-source project
• generate llms.txt and AI-ready documentation
• self-host a fast static docs site with local search
• mix local markdown with Notion, Sanity, or GitHub content into one docs site
• add an in-page AI assistant grounded in my docs
• deploy documentation to Vercel, Netlify, or GitHub Pages

When to choose

• you want a polished docs site without scaffolding or maintaining an app boilerplate
• you need AI-consumable documentation (llms.txt, raw markdown, MCP) out of the box
• you want fast static HTML with strong Core Web Vitals and no client framework JS
• you prefer self-hosting with no vendor lock-in instead of a managed platform like Mintlify

When to avoid

• you need a fully custom Next.js/React docs app with bespoke layouts from day one
• you require a managed hosted documentation service with collaboration features
• your project is not on Node.js 22.12 or newer
• you need deep customization beyond what ejecting to Astro provides
