How to Use Linear's Documentation View

Use this interactive demo to learn how to create and use project documentation in Linear.

Quick summary

Linear's Documentation View lets teams create dedicated document spaces within a project using a built-in Markdown editor. You can write specs, reference issues, and centralize project knowledge without leaving your Linear workspace.


Steps

  1. Select a project and open it from your Linear workspace.
  2. Navigate to the project's Overview tab within Linear.
  3. Click the add icon to start adding a new resource.
  4. Click 'Create document' next to the Resources section.
  5. A dedicated document space is created within the project, powered by the same Markdown editor used for issue descriptions.
  6. Write detailed project specifications, notes, or documentation, and reference other issues and projects directly within the text.

📌 Why this matters

Linear's Documentation View brings project specs and reference materials directly into your project management workflow, eliminating the need to switch between external tools like Notion or Confluence. Teams can create structured documents using a familiar Markdown editor and cross-reference issues and projects inline, keeping all context in one place. This tight integration between documentation and issue tracking helps engineering and product teams stay aligned, move faster, and reduce the risk of outdated or siloed information.
