### 2️⃣ Configure AutoScribe

Place a `autoscribe.yml` file at the root of your repo, in the branch where you're working on e.g. `main` or a feature branch.

**Example**

```
# AutoScribe minimal config
target_url: "docs/"

# Branch to trigger documentation (default: main)
branch: "main"
```

**What the config means:**

`target_url`: **Relative path** to existing or future docs folder.

`branch`: **Branch name** on which docs will be triggerd from commit.

### 3️⃣ Commit your code

As soon as you commit `autoscribe.yml`:

* AutoScribe initializes and runs the documentation.&#x20;
* Creates a branch: `autoscribe/docs/<commit_sha>` with updated docs, and create a pull request to merge with your `branch`
