DeepL Developer Docs

This repo is home to the DeepL Developer Docs.

Development

Install the Mintlify CLI to preview the documentation changes locally. To install, use the following command

npm i -g mint

Run the following command at the root of your documentation (where docs.json is)

mint dev

Migrating from the old mintlify CLI

If you have the deprecated mintlify package installed, replace it with mint:

npm uninstall -g mintlify
npm cache clean --force
npm i -g mint

Publishing Changes

Install our Github App to auto propagate changes from your repo to your deployment. Changes will be deployed to production automatically after pushing to the default branch. Find the link to install on your dashboard.

Troubleshooting

  • Mint dev isn't running - Run mint install to re-install dependencies.
  • Page loads as a 404 - Make sure you are running in a folder with docs.json

AI Workflow

Setting Up the DeepL Claude Code Marketplace (DeepL Internal Only)

DeepL team members: Install our internal Claude Code marketplace to access the diataxis-documentation plugin for structured technical writing:

  1. Add the marketplace:
/plugin marketplace add https://git.deepl.dev/deepl/devex/ai-tooling/claude-code-marketplace.git
  1. Install the diataxis-documentation plugin:
/plugin install diataxis-documentation@deepl-claude-code-marketplace

This gives you access to the Diátaxis framework for creating tutorials, how-to guides, references, and explanations.

The skill activates automatically when you ask Claude to:

  • "write documentation", "create tutorial", "create guide"
  • "write how-to", "document this", "add documentation"
  • "review documentation", "improve docs", "check documentation quality"
  • Mention "technical writing", "reference docs", "explanation"

When creating new documentation, the skill will:

  1. Help identify the correct documentation type (tutorial, how-to, reference, or explanation)
  2. Guide you through following Diátaxis writing principles
  3. Provide examples of good documentation structure
