Share New Research 
We're proud to share our new documentation has been moved to a public beta. This represents a significant leap in the quantity and quality of the documentation for how to build your strategy.
The documentation took roughly 1.5 man-years of work to write! It was the full time effort of Derek Melchin and part-time for Louis Szeto, and Alex Catarino since July 2021. In total there are 450,000+ words spread across 910 chapters.
The new documentation is divided into various core "experiences" the company offers. These are:
- Our Platform - Using the QuantConnect Cloud
- Organizations - How teams can build on top of QuantConnect
- Writing Algorithms - Using the QCAlgorithm API to develop strategies
- Research - Using the QuantBook API to use our Jupyter Notebooks
- LEAN CLI - Developing locally with the python LEAN CLI package
All old documentation links from the forum is currently being redirected to the new pages. The old documentation is still available under the "docs/v1" root URL.
A huge thank you to the dozens of community members who helped us spot issues in the new documentation and worked on the fixes over the last 6 months.
Next up, we're starting work on the LEAN Engine documentation. This is an enormous task, so we'll focus efforts on the general architecture of LEAN to start.
Onwards and upwards!

Does QC sell printed copies perhaps? Â I am always wishing I had a binder of the documentation next to me. Â (I'm old school.)

The documentation is great, at least if you know WHERE to look at.
Since I just joined recently I'm very confused because it seems like there is no search function in the documentation?
I asked the bot on discord if it is possible to search for a specific word like ‘leverage’. Mia confirmed that there is indeed no way. I think this is a very odd decision and could be improved for a better user experience.
Right now I have to know the structure of the documentation to find an answer, which is really strange to me.
I'm happy that I saw the comment about the PDFs. I downloaded them all and use the search function in there. This saves me a lot of unnecessary clicks and time. Before I even used the github documentation repository to search for keywords :-)
