WalkLang Documentation

WalkLang docs are built into a static site for walklang.wlkrlabs.com/docs. This directory remains the source for the hosted documentation path.

Use this page as the docs front door. The root README explains the repository; these docs explain how to install, learn, use, verify, and evolve WalkLang.

Generated Reference Docs

WalkLang supports rustdoc-style structured comments on public symbols. Generate Markdown and JSON reference output from real source with:

scripts/build-docs-site.sh

Reference docs under docs/reference/ are generated artifacts. The static site under public/ publishes the rendered docs pages, generated API reference, raw Markdown, and api.json from the same compiler output.

Hosting Contract

The public docs home is configured for:

walklang.wlkrlabs.com/docs

The public scheme is HTTPS, and HTTP redirects to HTTPS. docs/STATUS.md records the latest checked live HTTP/HTTPS state.

Use stable, relative links inside this directory so the same Markdown works in GitHub and on the hosted site. Run scripts/check-docs-site.sh before publishing docs changes.
