Installation

Get Void up and running in a few steps.

Requirements

  • Python 3.8 or higher
  • MkDocs 1.5 or higher
  • A modern browser with support for backdrop-filter

Install

pip install mkdocs-void

Note

Void depends on MkDocs. If you don't have it installed yet, it will be pulled in automatically.

Create a project

mkdocs new my-docs
cd my-docs

Enable the theme

Replace the contents of mkdocs.yml:

site_name: My Docs
theme:
  name: void

Serve

mkdocs serve

Open http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser. You should see the Void theme with glass panels, dot matrix background, and the default palette.

Verify installation

Run the following to confirm everything is in place:

mkdocs --version
pip show mkdocs-void

Tip

If you see CSS or rendering issues, make sure your browser supports backdrop-filter. Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox all have support as of 2024.
