Custom Ports

By default, Docuo uses port 3000. You can customize the port Docuo runs on by using the --port flag. To run Docuo on port 3333, for instance, use this command:

Untitled

Clear local build cache

When you run docuo dev for the first time, the build template will be cloned and cached locally. As a result, next time you run docuo dev will be faster, but the build template is probably out of date. So if your local website doesn't align with the production version, please run this command before you run docuo dev.
