Build context-relevant, action-orientated integrations directly on top of GitBook. |
This section describes how to create integrations and custom blocks in GitBook—Whether you're publicly integrating your service with ours, or you're building for your own team's private usage.
Developing custom blocks for GitBook is built using TypeScript, making it easier to spot errors in your code earlier on.
In order to build your first integration, you'll need to run the GitBook CLI to bootstrap your project.
{% content-ref url="../cli/quickstart.md" %} quickstart.md {% endcontent-ref %}
After bootstrapping your project, head to the Development section to learn about developing your app in GitBook.
