Neon Documentation
The Neon documentation is the source of truth for all Neon-related information. Always verify claims against the official docs before responding. Neon features and APIs evolve, so prefer fetching current docs over relying on training data.
Fetching Docs as Markdown
Any Neon doc page can be fetched as markdown in two ways:
- Append
.mdto the URL (simplest): https://neon.com/docs/introduction/branching.md - Request
text/markdownon the standard URL:curl -H "Accept: text/markdown" https://neon.com/docs/introduction/branching
Both return the same markdown content. Use whichever method your tools support.
