# Building for offline usage
|
||
|
||
If you want to ship your documentation together with your product, MkDocs has
|
||
you covered – with support from themes, [MkDocs] allows for building
|
||
offline-capable documentation. Notably, Material for MkDocs offers offline
|
||
support for many of its features.
|
||
|
||
[MkDocs]: https://www.mkdocs.org
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
### Built-in offline plugin
|
||
|
||
<!-- md:version 9.0.0 -->
|
||
<!-- md:plugin [offline] – built-in -->
|
||
|
||
The built-in offline plugin makes sure that the [site search] works when you
|
||
distribute the contents of your [site directory] as a download. Simply add
|
||
the following lines to `mkdocs.yml`:
|
||
|
||
``` yaml
|
||
plugins:
|
||
- offline
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For a list of all settings, please consult the [plugin documentation].

|
||
[plugin documentation]: ../plugins/offline.md
|
||
|
||
!!! tip "Automatically bundle all external assets"
|
||
|
||
The [built-in privacy plugin] makes it easy to use external assets
|
||
while building documentation for offline usage, as it will automatically
|
||
download all external assets to distribute them with your documentation.

|
||
|
||
#### Limitations
|
||
|
||
Material for MkDocs offers many interactive features, some of which will not
|
||
work from the file system due to the restrictions of modern browsers: all
|
||
features that use the `fetch` API will error.
|
||
|
||
Thus, when building for offline usage, make sure to disable the following
|
||
configuration settings: [instant loading], [site analytics], [git repository],
|
||
[versioning] and [comment systems].
|
||
|
||
[Instant loading]: setting-up-navigation.md#instant-loading
|
||
[Site analytics]: setting-up-site-analytics.md
|
||
[Versioning]: setting-up-versioning.md
|
||
[Git repository]: adding-a-git-repository.md
|
||
[Comment systems]: adding-a-comment-system.md
