How to Download, Build, and View Prisma Cloud Documentation Offline (and as a Container!)

Hello,

I hope i am writing in the right place .

I'm looking for some guidance on a specific use case related to Prisma Cloud documentation. I need to be able to download and view the Prisma Cloud documentation in a completely disconnected environment. This is crucial for air-gapped systems and secure offline operations.

I've seen that the Prisma Cloud documentation is available on GitHub, which is a great start. However, I have a few questions regarding how to make this truly functional offline:

Building the Documentation with NPM: I understand that the documentation likely uses a static site generator or a similar framework that relies on Node.js and NPM for building. Could someone please provide detailed instructions on how to download the necessary repositories, install dependencies using NPM, and then build the documentation so it can be viewed locally in a web browser without an internet connection? I'm looking for a step-by-step guide on the commands and any specific configuration needed.
Repository Differences: prisma-cloud-docs vs. prisma-cloud-docs-website: I've noticed two seemingly related repositories on GitHub: prisma-cloud-docs and prisma-cloud-docs-website. What is the exact difference between these two? Which one should I be using for downloading and building the comprehensive documentation for offline viewing? Is one the source content and the other the website build tools, or something else entirely?
Containerizing the Documentation (Ideal Scenario): My ultimate goal, and what would be most beneficial for our disconnected environment, is to be able to build and run the documentation as a container (e.g., a Docker container). This would greatly simplify deployment and ensure all dependencies are self-contained. Has anyone successfully containerized the Prisma Cloud documentation for offline access? If so, could you please share:
- A sample Dockerfile or a guide on how to create one.
- Instructions on how to build the image and run the container.
- Any considerations for making the container self-sufficient for Browse the documentation (e.g., embedding a web server).

Any help or pointers to existing resources, scripts, or guides would be greatly appreciated. This capability would significantly enhance our ability to operate and troubleshoot Prisma Cloud in highly secure and disconnected environments.

Thank you in advance for your time and expertise!

Best regards,

Guy

Hello!
We frequently update our Prisma Cloud docs, so I fear if you download it it may become outdated overtime. Please refer to the admin guide as this encompasses everything. We host our Docs on GitHub and make changes there that are then reflected via the URL.

1. Downloading an Entire Repository:

Using the GitHub Website:
1. Navigate to the repository on GitHub.
2. Click the green "Code" button.
3. Select "Download ZIP". This downloads the entire repository as a zipped folder. https://github.com/hlxsites/prisma-cloud-docs.git
Using Git Clone:
1. Open your terminal or command prompt.
2. Navigate to the desired location where you want to download the repository.
3. Use the command git clone docs/en/compute-edition/34/admin-guide.
