The Lens

By Erik Loyd, SaaS CEO and former COO/CFO of an AWS Premier Partner.

Updated Mar 2026

This is the documentation site for Prometheus, not Prometheus itself. If you're looking for the monitoring system, you want prometheus/prometheus. This repo contains the source files for prometheus.io, the website that explains how to use Prometheus.

That said, if you're contributing to Prometheus documentation or want to run the docs site locally for reference, this is what you'd clone. It's built with Hugo and TypeScript, hosted at prometheus.io.

The catch: this is a documentation repo with . It's not a tool you deploy or use in production. If you ended up here looking for the actual monitoring system, head to prometheus/prometheus, that's the 56K-star project you want.

Free. It's a docs repo.
