- Index: When you add a topic, you also need to add an index for the topic in the TOC file, for example,
[introduction](/introduction/StarRocks_intro.md). The topic path must be an absolute path. This TOC file will eventually be rendered as the side navigation bar for documentation on our official website. - Images: Images must first be put into the assets folder.

[test md](../../sql-referencest.md). For external links, the format must be[link text](link URL). - Code blocks: You must add a language identifier for code blocks, for example, ```sql.

Writing phase: Write the topic (in Markdown) according to the following template, and add the topic's index to the TOC file if the topic is newly added.
- Because the documentation is written in Markdown, we recommend that you use markdown-lint to check whether the documentation conforms to the Markdown syntax.
- When adding the topic index, please pay attention to its category in the TOC file. For example, the Stream Load topic belongs to the Loading chapter.
-
Submission phase: Create a pull request to submit the documentation changes to our documentation repository on GitHub, English documentation repository (for the English version) and Chinese documentation repository (for the Chinese version).

Review phase:
The review phase includes automatic checks and manual review.
- Automatic checks: whether the submitter has signed the Contributor License Agreement (CLA) and whether the documentation conforms to the Markdown syntax.
