This folder contains the documentation for Gymnasium.
If you are modifying a non-environment page or an atari environment page, please PR this repo. Otherwise, follow the steps below:
Instructions for modifying environment pages
Editing an environment page
If you are editing an Atari environment, directly edit the Markdown file in this repository.
Otherwise, fork Gymnasium and edit the docstring in the environment's Python file. Then, pip install your Gymnasium fork and run docs/scripts/gen_mds.py
in this repo. This will automatically generate a Markdown documentation file for the environment.
Adding a new environment
Atari env
For Atari envs, add a Markdown file into pages/environments/atari
then complete the other steps.
Non-Atari env
Ensure the environment is in Gymnasium (or your fork). Ensure that the environment's Python file has a properly formatted markdown docstring. Pip install Gymnasium (or your fork) then run docs/scripts/gen_mds.py
. This will automatically generate an md page for the environment. Then complete the other steps.
Other steps
- Add the corresponding gif into the
docs/_static/videos/{ENV_TYPE}
folder, whereENV_TYPE
is the category of your new environment (e.g. mujoco). Follow snake_case naming convention. Alternatively, rundocs/scripts/gen_gifs.py
. - Edit
docs/environments/{ENV_TYPE}/index.md
, and add the name of the file corresponding to your new environment to thetoctree
.

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install gymnasium
