Dhub review
A focused Markdown and MDX CMS for teams working in GitHub.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Dhub is a cloud content management system for technical documentation stored as Markdown or MDX in GitHub repositories. It is aimed at writers, product managers, and developers who want visual editing while keeping GitHub as the source of truth. Its feature set fits documentation projects built with Docusaurus, Next.js, TanStack Start, and other Markdown-based systems. Editors can work with formatted content without giving up repository-based workflows.
The free Hobby tier is for personal, non-commercial use with personal GitHub accounts and public repositories. A 14-day free trial is also available without requiring payment details. Starter costs $16 per month or $192 per year and adds real-time collaboration, GitHub Organizations support, and private repositories. Team costs $50 per month or $600 per year and includes everything in Starter, along with the listed collaboration and organization features. The plan structure makes Hobby suitable for individual public projects, while Starter is the practical entry point for teams and private documentation.
Dhub’s strongest fit is a GitHub-centered workflow that needs more than raw Markdown editing. It supports two-way synchronization, direct commits to a branch, pull request creation, image upload and management, frontmatter editing, custom MDX components, and visual documentation navigation management. Those capabilities give documentation teams a way to involve non-developer contributors while preserving review through Git. The tradeoff is a narrow ecosystem: GitHub is the listed integration and web is the listed platform. Teams using another Git provider or needing broader platform coverage should choose a different CMS. Dhub suits documentation teams already committed to GitHub, Markdown, and MDX; it is less suitable for projects outside that workflow.
