1. Include TuiDocMainModule in your App module and use in your template:

   <tui-doc-main>You can add content here, it will be shown below navigation in the sidebar</tui-doc-main>

2. Configure languages to highlight in your main module:

   import {Component} from '@angular/core';
   import {TuiDocMainModule} from '@taiga-ui/addon-doc';
   import {hljsLanguages} from './hljsLanguages';
   import {HIGHLIGHT_OPTIONS, HighlightLanguage} from 'ngx-highlightjs';
   import {App} from './app.component';
   
   @Component({
     standalone: true,
     imports: [TuiDocMainModule],
     providers: [
       {
         provide: HIGHLIGHT_OPTIONS,
         useValue: {
           coreLibraryLoader: () => import('highlight.js/lib/core' as string),
           lineNumbersLoader: () => import('highlightjs-line-numbers.js' as string), // Optional, only if you want the line numbers
           languages: {
             typescript: () => import('highlight.js/lib/languages/typescript' as string),
             less: () => import('highlight.js/lib/languages/less' as string),
             xml: () => import('highlight.js/lib/languages/xml' as string),
           },
         },
       },
     ],
   })
   export class App {}

3. Configure documentation providers:

   TUI_DOC_PAGES — an array of pages, see TuiDocPages type

   TUI_DOC_LOGO — an src for the SVG logo in the sidebar

   TUI_DOC_DEFAULT_TABS — an array of default named for tabs on your typical page

   TUI_DOC_TITLE — a title prefix for the browser tab

   TUI_DOC_SEE_ALSO — a two dimensional array of related pages by their titles

   TUI_DOC_SEARCH_ENABLED — enable doc search. Default value is true

4. Configure routing:

   import {Routes} from '@angular/router';
   
   const appRoutes: Routes = [
     {
       path: 'super-page',
       loadChildren: async () => (await import('../super-page/super-page.module')).SuperModule,
       data: {
         title: 'Super Page',
       },
     },
     // ...
   ];

   You must have title in route data in order for TUI_DOC_SEE_ALSO to work. It would also be automatically added to TUI_DOC_TITLE for browser tab title when navigating to that route.

5. Create pages.

   Module:

   import {TuiAddonDoc} from '@taiga-ui/addon-doc';
   
   @Component({
     standalone: true,
     imports: [TuiAddonDoc, SuperComponent],
   })
   export class App {}

   Component:

   // ..
   
   @Component({
     standalone: true,
     selector: 'super',
     templateUrl: './super.component.html',
   })
   export class Super {
     // Keys would be used as tabs for code example
     readonly example = {
       // import a file as a string
       TypeScript: import('./examples/1/index.ts?raw'),
       HTML: import('./examples/1/index.html?raw'),
     };
   
     readonly inputVariants = ['input 1', 'input 2'];
   }

   You can use any tool to import a file as a string. For example, you can use Webpack Asset Modules.

   Template:

   <tui-doc-page
     header="Super"
     package="SUPER-PACKAGE"
     deprecated
   >
     <ng-template pageTab>
       <!-- default tab name would be used -->
       This would be the content of a first tab
   
       <tui-doc-example
         id="basic-example"
         heading="Example of usage"
         [content]="example"
       >
         <example-1></example-1>
       </tui-doc-example>
     </ng-template>
   
     <ng-template pageTab="Documentation">
       <tui-doc-demo>
         <super-component [input]="input"></super-component>
       </tui-doc-demo>
       <tui-doc-documentation>
         <ng-template
           documentationPropertyName="input"
           documentationPropertyMode="input"
           documentationPropertyType="T"
           [documentationPropertyValues]="inputVariants"
           [(documentationPropertyValue)]="input"
         >
           Some input
         </ng-template>
       </tui-doc-documentation>
     </ng-template>
   </tui-doc-page>
