After a lengthy alpha stage in order to ensure feature parity and quality, we are excited to officially release the first Docusaurus 2 beta.
With the announcement of this beta, the team is even more confident that Docusaurus 2 is ready for mainstream adoption!

Today, we officially release Docusaurus 2 i18n (internationalization), as part of 2.0.0-alpha.71.
Docusaurus 2 has now reached full feature parity with Docusaurus 1. 🎉 And soon, after a few additional infrastructure updates and a bit more testing, the first Docusaurus 2 beta will be released.
We went the extra mile, and the new i18n support is even better than in Docusaurus 1.
In this post, we will present you the translation workflow, explain some design decisions and showcase early adopter sites that just went live: Jest, Redwood, and Datagit.
We also dogfood the i18n support on the Docusaurus 2 site itself, and this post is already available in English and French!

2020 was great for Docusaurus, despite a regrettable start and a tumultuous year for everyone.
We continued to invest in Docusaurus 2, and made it reach full feature parity with Docusaurus 1.
We now recommend Docusaurus 2 as the default choice to start a new Docusaurus project and encourage v1 users to migrate to Docusaurus 2.
We are still in alpha, but expect some good news very soon!

It is with great sadness to announce that our primary external Docusaurus contributor, Endilie Yacop Sucipto (Endi to those who knew him), passed away over the weekend after an illness associated with his bout with cancer.

2019 was a great year for Docusaurus - we've made tremendous progress on Docusaurus 2. Current Docusaurus 1 users who aren't using the translations feature can feel free to check it out and migrate to it! Otherwise we will work with you to make that happen in 2020 :)

Docusaurus was officially announced over nine months ago as a way to easily build open source documentation websites. Since then, it has amassed over 8,600 GitHub Stars, and is used by many popular open source projects such as React Native, Babel, Jest, Reason and Prettier.
There is a saying that the very best software is constantly evolving, and the very worst is not. In case you are not aware, we have been planning and working on the next version of Docusaurus 🎉.

“Joel and I were discussing having a website and how it would have been great to launch with it. So I challenged myself to add Docusaurus support. It took just over an hour and a half. I'm going to send you a PR with the addition so you can take a look and see if you like it. Your workflow for adding docs wouldn't be much different from editing those markdown files.”
— Note sent to the Profilo team
This is the story of the rather short journey it took to create the Profilo website using Docusaurus.
Profilo, an Android library for collecting performance traces from production, was announced earlier this year. The project was published on GitHub with a less than a handful or Markdown files to describe its functionality and no website to showcase any branding and highlight the logo. The task at hand was to turn these existing docs and logo into a website.

We are very happy to introduce Docusaurus to help you manage one or many open source websites.
We created Docusaurus for the following reasons:
