# Create a site from what you have

Turn your code, existing docs, product page, a file or pasted notes into a preview of a whole docs site, with one message to Claude.

You choose your starting point on the Documarium start page, and Claude does the reading and the drafting. You end with a link to a preview you can keep or throw away. You do not need an account until you keep it.

## Before you begin

- Add Documarium to Claude, on the web or the desktop app. The [installation guide](https://docs.documarium.com/getting-started/installation/) shows how.
- Have your starting point ready. If it is code on GitHub that is not public, connect GitHub in Claude first.

## Steps

1. Open [documarium.com/start](https://documarium.com/start).
2. Choose what you are starting from:
   - **Code on GitHub**: type its web address.
   - **Docs online**: type the address of their home page. A public Google Doc or Notion page works too.
   - **Your product's web page**: Claude reads it and drafts the docs it promises.
   - **A file**, such as a PDF, a Word document or slides: you attach it in Claude when you paste your prompt.
   - **Text you paste in**, such as notes or a README.
   - **Nothing yet**: Claude asks you a few questions, then drafts your first pages.
3. Choose which pages Claude writes, for example Getting started, How-to guides, Troubleshooting or a privacy policy.
4. Choose the language your site is written in, and up to three more languages to add.
5. Choose **Copy prompt and open Claude**, then paste the prompt into Claude and send it.

Claude reads your source, drafts the pages and answers with a link to the preview.

## What to do with the preview

Open the link and read your pages. A preview made without an account is shown for 48 hours. If nobody keeps it, its pages are deleted when it stops being shown. Keeping it as a draft in your account is free; see [Keep a preview as a draft](https://docs.documarium.com/guides/keep-a-preview/).
