Error using Docsify in an Azure Web App

Question

I'm trying to run Docsify in an Azure Web App. I'm getting a 404 that looks like there's something I'm missing about configuring the site, perhaps?

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
index.html/README.md 

Has anyone had success using Docsify in an Azure Web App?

Answer 1

I found the answer. You need to allow IIS to serve markdown files. You can do that by adding the following to your web.config (or adding this as your web.config if you don't already have one:

<configuration>
  <system.webServer>
    <staticContent>
      <remove fileExtension=".md" />
      <mimeMap fileExtension=".md" mimeType="text/markdown" />
    </staticContent>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>

The issue on the Doscify GitHub is here.

Answer 2

I used this

window.$docsify = {
      homepage: 'readme.md'
}
