+# Docusaurus
+
+## Overview
+
+Docusaurus is an open source static site generator for building
+documentation websites. This stack runs the Docusaurus dev server
+directly from a `node` image against a project mounted from the host,
+so you can scaffold and preview a docs site without installing Node
+locally.
+
+## Project Details
+
+-   **Project Repository:** https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus
+-   **Container Image:** [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/_/node)
+-   **Compose Example:** N/A (no official Docusaurus image; this stack runs the CLI on top of `node`)
+-   **Documentation:** [Docusaurus Docs](https://docusaurus.io/docs)
+-   **Reverse Proxy Port:** `3000`
+
+## Getting Started
+
+1. Start the container: `docker compose up -d`
+2. On first run, with an empty volume, the container scaffolds a new
+   classic Docusaurus site with `create-docusaurus` before starting
+   the dev server — this can take a minute
+3. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser
+4. Edit files under the mounted volume on the host; the dev server
+   hot-reloads on changes
+
+## Environment Variable Notes
+
+-   `DOCUSAURUS_IMAGE` – Node image to run Docusaurus on (default: `node:20-alpine`)
+-   `DOCUSAURUS_PORT` – Host port to expose the dev server on (default: `3000`)
+-   `DOCUSAURUS_RESTART` – Restart policy (default: `unless-stopped`)
+
+## Volume Notes
+
+-   `/app` – Docusaurus project source (`docusaurus.config.js`, `docs/`,
+    `package.json`, etc.); mounted from `${VOL_PATH:-/data}/docusaurus`
+    so the site persists and is editable from the host. If this
+    directory has no `package.json`, the container scaffolds a fresh
+    classic-template site into it on startup.
+
+## Network Notes
+
+Requires proxy network
+
+## Docker Run
+
+```bash
+docker run -d \
+  --name=docusaurus \
+  -e HOST=0.0.0.0 \
+  -v /data/docusaurus:/app \
+  -w /app \
+  -p 3000:3000 \
+  node:20-alpine \
+  sh -c "apk add --no-cache git >/dev/null 2>&1 || true; [ -f package.json ] || npx --yes create-docusaurus@latest . classic --skip-install --package-manager npm; npm install; npm start -- --host 0.0.0.0"
+```
+
+## Additional Notes / Gotchas
+
+-   This is a dev-server stack, not production hosting — it runs
+    `npm start`, which serves an unoptimized, hot-reloading build.
+    For production, build a static bundle (`npm run build`) and serve
+    it from a static file server or CDN instead.
+-   `npm install` runs on every container start, so the first start
+    after scaffolding (and any restart) takes longer than subsequent
+    ones once `node_modules` is cached in the volume.
+-   Because the entire project lives in the bind-mounted volume,
+    deleting the volume wipes the docs site along with it — back it up
+    like any other source tree.
