# 🔒 Former Aiven Documentation > [!IMPORTANT] > This repository used to be the main documentation of Aiven. > > The content has been migrated to https://github.com/aiven/aiven-docs. ## Building the docs 1. We recommend using a [virtual environment](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html): ```bash python3 -m venv venv ``` 1. Activate your virtual environment: ```bash source venv/bin/activate ``` 1. Install the dependencies: ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt ``` 1. Build a local preview: ```bash make livehtml ``` See the output on [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000).
