“ReadMe handles this through documentation versioning.”
+ documentation versioning

“ReadMe handles this through documentation versioning.”

+ simultaneous version publishing

“You can keep v1 and v2 published simultaneously, so existing API consumers can continue using the v1 documentation while new consumers use v2.”

+ version dropdown navigation

“ReadMe also provides a version dropdown in the documentation navigation, allowing readers to switch between v1 and v2.”

+ independent versions

“Versions are independent: Changes made to v2 don't automatically modify v1.”

+ deprecation warning banner

“You can deprecate v1 later: This displays a warning banner without immediately removing access.”

− plan limitations

“Plan limitations: Starter supports one version; Pro and higher support unlimited versions.”

− reusable content not synchronized

“Reusable content is separate: Reusable content is copied when forking, but subsequent changes aren't synchronized between versions.”
