Landing Page Basics

Apiboost uses the DPBoost Page content type as the primary way to creating static landing pages. These pages can be used for marketing, get started/onboarding, and other useful tutorial content to help users gain familiarity with your APIs.

Paragraphs

Apiboost is pre-loaded with paragraph layouts. These layouts are a helpful, no-code method of arranging content quickly and accurately. Each landing page can have any number of paragraphs in any order, living up to its name: you can build a page paragraph by paragraph, if design requirements are specific enough.

The names tend to be self-descriptive. However, feel free to reference our paragraphs cheat sheet for more information on paragraph types.

Anchors links are useful for users and can be used with or without the Table of Contents enabled

However, we need anchor links to use the Table of Contents. Once we have them, the very last step is a toggle to enable/disable the feature:

Enabling Table of Contents will add a floating component with anchor links to your page:

With a brief understanding of what this feature is and what it does, we can move on to creating a page.
