cd packages/nextra-theme-docs
pnpm build

Development

You can also debug them together with a website locally. For instance, to start examples/docs locally, run

cd examples/docs
pnpm dev

Any change to example/docs will be re-rendered instantly.

If you update the core or theme packages, a rebuild is required. Or you can use the watch mode for both nextra and the theme in separated terminals.
