Layout

Bark has two layouts. You don't pick a layout directly. Front matter's layout field switches between them.

Doc layout (default) ​

Every page without layout: home in its front matter gets the doc layout:

  • Header nav bar (if topNav is configured).
  • Left sidebar (auto-generated, or from nav/sidebar config).
  • Breadcrumbs.
  • A collapsible "On this page" table of contents on mobile, plus a fixed right-hand TOC on desktop. Set toc: false in frontmatter to hide it on a specific page.
  • Your rendered Markdown content.
  • "Edit this page" link (if editLink is configured).
  • "Last updated" stamp (if enabled).
  • Prev/next pagination, derived from your nav order.
  • The footer (if footer is configured).
yaml
---
title: Configuration
---

No layout field needed. This is the default.

Home layout ​

yaml
---
layout: home
hero:
  name: Bark
  text: Markdown in, docs site out.
---

Set layout: home and Bark drops the sidebar, breadcrumbs, and TOC entirely, replacing your content with a full-width hero section and features grid. See homepage for the full hero/features schema.

Note

Home pages never show "Edit this page", "Last updated", or pagination links, regardless of config. This is intentional: a landing page isn't part of the linear reading order pagination assumes, and there's nothing to "edit" in the sense those links imply.
