# What is VitePress?
-VitePress is a [Static Site Generator](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_site_generator) (SSG). It is designed for building performant content-centric websites, such as this documentation you are reading right now. It also powers the documentation for [Vue.js](https://vuejs.org/), [Vite](https://vitejs.dev/), and many more. In a nutshell, VitePress takes your source content written in [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown), applies a theme to it, and generates a directory of static HTML pages (and necessary asset files) that can be easily deployed anywhere.

+## Use Cases
+
+- **Documentation**
+
+ VitePress ships with a default theme designed for technical documentation, especially those that need to embed interactive demos. It powers this page you are reading right now, along with the documentation for [Vite](https://vitejs.dev/), [Pinia](https://pinia.vuejs.org/), [VueUse](https://vueuse.org/), [Mermaid](https://mermaid.js.org/), [Wikimedia Codex](https://doc.wikimedia.org/codex/latest/), and many more.
+
+ The [official Vue.js documentation](https://vuejs.org/) is also based on VitePress, but uses a custom theme shared between multiple translations.
+
+- **Blogs, Portfolios, and Marketing Sites**
+
+ VitePress supports [fully customized themes](/guide/custom-theme), with the developer experience of a standard Vite + Vue application. Being built on Vite also means you can directly leverage Vite plugins from its rich ecosystem. In addition, VitePress provides flexible APIs to [load data](/guide/data-loading) (local or remote) and [dynamically generate routes](/guide/routing#dynamic-routes). You can use it to build almost anything as long as the data can be determined at build time.

+ The official [Vue.js blog](https://blog.vuejs.org/) is a simple blog that generates its index page based on local content.

The hydration process is extremely fast: on [PageSpeed Insights](https://pagespeed.web.dev/), typical VitePress sites achieve near-perfect performance scores even on low-end mobile devices with a slow network.

To be able to hydrate the dynamic Vue parts embedded inside static Markdown, each Markdown page is processed as a Vue component and compiled into JavaScript. This may sound inefficient, but the Vue compiler is smart enough to separate the static and dynamic parts, minimizing both the hydration cost and payload size. For the initial page load, the static parts are automatically eliminated from the JavaScript payload and skipped during hydration.
-## Theming & Extensibility
-
-VitePress ships with a feature-rich default theme designed for documentation purposes. It allows you to spin up a beautiful documentation site like this one with minimal effort, and doesn't require any Vue-specific knowledge.
-
-VitePress also supports fully customized themes with the developer experience of a standard Vite + Vue application. Being built on Vite also means you can directly leverage Vite plugins from its rich ecosystem. This makes VitePress an ideal choice for building sites that is content-centric but also requires non-trivial interactivity. The [Vue.js documentation](https://github.com/vuejs/docs) is a good example of such customization.

-And of course, you can use it to build a blog! The [official Vue.js blog](https://github.com/vuejs/blog) is also built with VitePress.

## What About VuePress?
VitePress is the spiritual successor of VuePress. The original VuePress was based on Vue 2 and webpack. With Vue 3 and Vite under the hood, VitePress provides significantly better DX, better production performance, a more polished default theme, and a more flexible customization API.
