+# Manage Docs Versions
+
+Docusaurus can manage multiple versions of your docs.
+
+## Create a docs version
+
+Release a version 1.0 of your project:
+
+```bash
+npm run docusaurus docs:version 1.0
+```
+
+The `docs` folder is copied into `versioned_docs/version-1.0` and `versions.json` is created.
+
+Your docs now have 2 versions:
+
+- `1.0` at `http://localhost:3000/docs/` for the version 1.0 docs
+- `current` at `http://localhost:3000/docs/next/` for the **upcoming, unreleased docs**
+
+## Add a Version Dropdown
+
+To navigate seamlessly across versions, add a version dropdown.
+
+Modify the `docusaurus.config.js` file:
+
+```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
+export default {
+ themeConfig: {
+ navbar: {
+ items: [
+ // highlight-start
+ {
+ type: 'docsVersionDropdown',
+ },
+ // highlight-end
+ ],
+ },
+ },
+};
+```
+
+The docs version dropdown appears in your navbar:
+
+![Docs Version Dropdown](./img/docsVersionDropdown.png)
+
+## Update an existing version
+
+It is possible to edit versioned docs in their respective folder:
+
+- `versioned_docs/version-1.0/hello.md` updates `http://localhost:3000/docs/hello`
+- `docs/hello.md` updates `http://localhost:3000/docs/next/hello`
