📂 Multi-Repo Mode

Neko automatically supports building and watching multiple documentation projects from a single repository. If Neko detects multiple neko.yml files in subdirectories, it automatically enables multi-repo mode.

In this mode:

• Each nested neko.yml creates a dedicated route (e.g., ./api-docs/neko.yml gets mapped to localhost:5000/api-docs/).
• The root index.md and neko.yml are also respected and serve as your central landing page.
• Sub-projects will automatically inherit essential configuration settings (such as the Theme, Branding, and Snippets configuration) from parent neko.yml files, letting you maintain consistency effortlessly while still allowing granular overrides where needed.
