Blume is a zero-config, markdown-first documentation framework that turns a folder of Markdown or MDX files into a production-grade website. It uses Astro and Vite under the hood to generate static sites that are fast, SEO-optimized, and specifically designed to be readable by AI agents.

Added documentation versioning, agent-driven i18n translation with CI drift gates, RFC 9727 API catalog generation, and built-in image optimization for local assets.

As of

  • Built-in AI surfaces like llms.txt, MCP server, and Ask AI
  • Zero-config setup that infers navigation and routing from file structure

  • Eject path to promote the generated site into a standalone Astro project
