Routes and Aliases

Every page node creates a canonical docs route from its slug. A page can also declare aliases so old URLs or shorter names keep working while the graph still has one canonical page entry.

const page = {
  kind: 'page',
  id: 'quickStart',
  title: 'Quick Start',
  slug: 'quick-start',
  aliases: ['quickstart', 'start'],
  source: 'content/quick-start/content.mdx',
  description: 'Scaffold and run a Nivel consumer.'
}

With basePath: '/docs/', that page resolves to:

• /docs/quick-start
• /docs/quickstart
• /docs/start

Generated Vike files

Nivel writes route files for canonical pages and aliases under pages/(nivel-generated). Those files are implementation details of the engine and should be regenerated with nivel prepare, not edited manually.

Read Generated Pages for the generated directory contract.
