Link

A component used to create links that can be used to navigate to other pages.

In DocuBook, all links written in Markdown are automatically converted to their respective GFM (common markdown) components. This allows for better optimization and performance in your application.

When you create a link in your Markdown, it is converted to the GFM (common markdown) Link component. This enables client-side navigation and improves loading times. Here’s an example of how a Markdown link is transformed:

Markdown

md
[Visit OpenAI](https://www.openai.com)

Rendered Output

The above Markdown is converted to:

md
[Visit OpenAI](https://www.openai.com)

Benefits

  • Performance Optimization: Automatic conversion to GFM (common markdown) components ensures optimized loading of links.
  • Improved User Experience: Client-side navigation with GFM (common markdown) Link improves the browsing experience.

By utilizing these features, you can ensure that your documentation is not only visually appealing but also performs efficiently.
