### Config Resolution ### Config Resolution
Place your configuration file at `.vitepress/config.js`. This is where all VitePress-specific files will be placed. The config file is always resolved from `<root>/.vitepress/config.[ext]`, where `<root>` is your VitePress [project root](/guide/routing#root-and-source-directory), and `[ext]` is one of the supported file extensions. TypeScript is supported out of the box. Supported extensions include `.js`, `.ts`, `.cjs`, `.mjs`, `.cts`, and `.mts`.
```

::: tip
You can also use any of `.ts`, `.cjs`, `.mjs`, `.cts`, `.mts` as the config file extension.

It is recommended to use ES modules syntax in config files. The config file should default export an object:

### Config Intellisense ### Config Intellisense
Since VitePress ships with TypeScript typings, you can leverage your IDE's intellisense with jsdoc type hints: Using the `defineConfig` helper will provide TypeScript-powered intellisense for config options. Assuming your IDE supports it, this should work in both JavaScript and TypeScript.
```js
/**
* @type {import('vitepress').UserConfig}
*/
const config = {
// ...
}
export default config
```
Alternatively, you can use the `defineConfig` helper at which should provide intellisense without the need for jsdoc annotations:
```js ```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress' import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'

VitePress also directly supports TS config files. You can use `.vitepress/config.ts` with the `defineConfig` helper as well.

Title for the site. This will be displayed in the nav bar. Also used as the suffix for all page titles unless `titleTemplate` is defined. It will also be used as the default suffix for all individual page titles, unless [`titleTemplate`](#titletemplate) is defined. An individual page's final title will be the text content of its first `<h1>` header, combined with the global `title` as the suffix. For example with the following config and page content:
```ts ```ts
export default { export default {
title: 'VitePress' title: 'My Awesome Site'
} }
``` ```
```md
# Hello
```
The title of the page will be `Hello | My Awesome Site`.

- Can be overridden per page via [frontmatter](./frontmatter-config#titletemplate)
The suffix for the title. For example, if you set `title` as `VitePress` and set `titleTemplate` as `My Site`, the html title becomes `VitePress | My Site`. Allows customizing each page's title suffix or the entire title. For example:
Set `false` to disable the feature. If the option is `undefined`, then the value of `title` option will be used.
```ts ```ts
export default { export default {
title: 'VitePress', title: 'My Awesome Site',
titleTemplate: 'Vite & Vue powered static site generator' titleTemplate: 'Custom Suffix'
} }
``` ```
```md
# Hello
```
The title of the page will be `Hello | Custom Suffix`.
To configure a title separator other than `|`, you can omit `title` and use the `:title` symbol in `titleTemplate`. To completely customize how the title should be rendered, you can use the `:title` symbol in `titleTemplate`:
```ts ```ts
export default { export default {
titleTemplate: ':title - Vitepress' titleTemplate: ':title - Custom Suffix'
} }
``` ```
Here `:title` will be replaced with the text inferred from the page's first `<h1>` header. The title of the previous example page will be `Hello - Custom Suffix`.
The option can be set to `false` to disable title suffixes.

Whether to enable dark mode or not. The directory where your markdown pages are stored, relative to project root. Also see [Root and Source Directory](/guide/routing#root-and-source-directory).

### ignoreDeadLinks
- Type: `boolean | 'localhostLinks'`
- Default: `false` - Default: `false`
Use git commit to get the timestamp. This option enables the default theme to display the page's last updated time. You can customize the text via [`themeConfig.lastUpdatedText`](./default-theme-config#lastupdatedtext) option. When set to `true`, VitePress will not fail builds due to dead links. When set to `'localhostLinks'`, the build will fail on dead links, but won't check `localhost` links.
```ts ```ts
export default { export default {
lastUpdated: true ignoreDeadLinks: true

## Theming
### appearance
- Type: `boolean | 'dark'`
- Default: `true`
Whether to enable dark mode (by adding the `.dark` class to the `<html>` element).
- If the option is set to `true`, the default theme will be determined by the user's preferred color scheme.
- If the option is set to `dark`, the theme will be dark by default, unless the user manually toggles it.
- If the option is set to `false`, users will not be able to toggle the theme.
This option injects an inline script that restores users settings from local storage using the `vitepress-theme-appearance` key. This ensures the `.dark` class is applied before the page is rendered to avoid flickering.
### lastUpdated
- Type: `boolean`
- Default: `false`
Whether to get the last updated timestamp for each page using Git. The timestamp will be included in each page's page data, accessible via [`useData`](/reference/runtime-api#usedata).
When using the default theme, enabling this option will display each page's last updated time. You can customize the text via [`themeConfig.lastUpdatedText`](./default-theme-config#lastupdatedtext) option.
