Why we're doing this

At Mintlify, we build tools for developers. Many of us maintain open source projects ourselves and understand the challenges of creating great documentation with limited resources.

Open source projects are the foundation of modern software development. From the frameworks we use daily to the tools that power our workflows, the open source community drives innovation forward.

Yet documentation often takes a backseat. It's time-consuming, requires maintenance, and competes with feature development for attention. But great docs can be the difference between a project that thrives and one that struggles to gain adoption.

This program is our way of giving back to the community that inspires us every day. We want to help maintainers spend less time wrestling with documentation infrastructure and more time building amazing things.

If you're building something that matters to the open source community, we'd love to help you tell that story through documentation.
