+# Language-Specific Markdown Generation
+
+This implementation generates language-specific markdown files from HTML pages with React-based language selectors.
+
+## Overview
+
+The system can operate in two modes:
+
+1. **Simple Mode** (legacy): Converts static HTML to markdown without language awareness
+2. **Advanced Mode** (new): Hydrates React, switches languages, and generates separate markdown files per language
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Advanced Mode (Default)
+
+1. **Load HTML**: Reads built HTML files from `./public`
+2. **Setup JSDOM**: Creates a browser-like environment with React support
+3. **Asset Rewriting**: Rewrites `ASSET_PREFIX` URLs to local paths (since assets aren't deployed yet)
+4. **React Hydration**: Loads and executes Gatsby bundles (webpack-runtime, framework, app, page bundles)
+5. **Language Detection**: Identifies available languages from:
+   - Language selector DOM elements
+   - Page metadata
+   - Product-based language data (`src/data/languages/languageData.ts`)
+6. **Language Switching**: For each language:
+   - Updates URL search params (`?lang=javascript`)
+   - Triggers React re-render
+   - Waits for content to update
+7. **Content Extraction**: Extracts main content and converts to markdown
+8. **File Generation**: Saves as `page.{language}.md` (e.g., `docs/realtime/channels.javascript.md`)
+
+### File Naming Convention
+
+- **With languages**: `/docs/foo/index.html` → `/docs/foo.javascript.md`, `/docs/foo.python.md`, etc.
+- **Without languages**: `/docs/foo/index.html` → `/docs/foo.md` (current behavior)
+
+## Usage
+
+### During Build (Automatic)
+
+Advanced mode runs automatically after each build:
+
+```bash
+yarn build
+```
+
+To force simple mode:
+
+```bash
+MARKDOWN_SIMPLE_MODE=true yarn build
+```
+
+### Standalone Script
+
+Generate markdown without rebuilding the site:
+
+```bash
+# Default (advanced mode, all pages, all languages)
+yarn generate-markdown
+
+# Simple mode (static HTML conversion)
+yarn generate-markdown:simple
+
+# Verbose logging
+yarn generate-markdown:verbose
+
+# Custom options
+node scripts/generate-language-markdown.ts --mode=advanced --verbose
+```
+
+#### CLI Options
+
+```
+--mode=<mode>          Export mode: "simple" or "advanced" (default: advanced)
+--env=<environment>    Environment to load (.env.<environment>)
+--pages=<pattern>      Glob pattern to filter pages (e.g., "docs/realtime/*")
+--languages=<list>     Comma-separated languages (e.g., "javascript,python")
+--site-url=<url>       Site URL for absolute links
+--verbose, -v          Enable verbose logging
+--help, -h             Show help message
+```
+
+### Examples
+
+```bash
+# Generate for specific pages
+yarn generate-markdown --pages="docs/realtime/*"
+
+# Generate specific languages only
+yarn generate-markdown --languages="javascript,python" --verbose
+
+# Use different environment
+yarn generate-markdown --env=staging
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+- `ASSET_PREFIX`: Asset CDN URL (automatically rewritten to local paths)
+- `MARKDOWN_SIMPLE_MODE`: Set to `'true'` to force simple mode
+- `VERBOSE`: Set to `'true'` for detailed logging
+- `GATSBY_ABLY_MAIN_WEBSITE`: Site URL for absolute links
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### File Structure
+
+```

+├── markdownOutput.ts              # Mode switcher and simple implementation
+├── markdownOutputWithLanguages.ts # Advanced mode with React hydration
+└── index.ts                       # Post-build hook orchestration
+
+scripts/
+└── generate-language-markdown.ts  # Standalone CLI script
+```
+
+### Key Components
+
+#### 1. JSDOM Setup (`markdownOutputWithLanguages.ts`)
+
+```typescript
+class LocalAssetResourceLoader extends ResourceLoader {
+  // Rewrites ASSET_PREFIX URLs to local ./public paths
+  async fetch(url: string, options: any) {
+    if (this.assetPrefix && url.includes(this.assetPrefix)) {
+      const localPath = url.replace(this.assetPrefix, '');
+      return fs.readFile(path.join('./public', localPath));
+    }
+    return super.fetch(url, options);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### 2. Language Detection
+
+```typescript
+function detectAvailableLanguages(document: Document, htmlFile: string): string[] {
+  // 1. Try DOM selectors
+  const options = document.querySelectorAll('[data-language-selector] option');
+  if (options.length > 0) {
+    return Array.from(options).map(opt => opt.value);
+  }
+
+  // 2. Fallback to product-based data
+  const product = extractProductFromPath(htmlFile); // e.g., 'realtime' → 'pubsub'
+  return Object.keys(languageData[product]);
+}
+```
+
+#### 3. Language Switching
+
+```typescript
+async function switchLanguage(dom: JSDOM, language: string): Promise<boolean> {
+  // Update URL search params
+  window.location.search = `?lang=${language}`;
+
+  // Trigger events
+  window.dispatchEvent(new Event('popstate'));
+  window.dispatchEvent(new Event('hashchange'));
+
+  // Manipulate selector
+  const selector = document.querySelector('[data-language-selector] select');
+  selector.value = language;
+  selector.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'));
+
+  // Wait for content to update
+  await waitFor(() => contentChanged(), 5000);
+}
+```
+
+### Frontmatter Schema
+
+```yaml
+---
+title: "Channel Lifecycle"
+url: "/docs/realtime/channels"
+generated_at: "2025-11-18T10:30:00Z"
+description: "Learn about channel lifecycle and state management"
+language: "javascript"
+language_version: "2.11"
+---
+```
+
+## Supported Languages
+
+Languages are defined per product in `src/data/languages/languageData.ts`:
+
+- **Pub/Sub**: javascript, nodejs, typescript, react, csharp, flutter, java, kotlin, objc, php, python, ruby, swift, go, laravel
+- **Chat**: javascript, react, swift, kotlin
+- **Spaces**: javascript, react
+- **Asset Tracking**: javascript, swift, kotlin
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### React Hydration Fails
+
+**Symptom**: Falls back to simple mode
+
+**Causes**:
+- Missing Gatsby bundles
+- JavaScript errors during hydration
+- Timeout (default: 30s)
+
+**Solution**: Check browser console logs, increase timeout in `CONFIG.hydrationTimeout`
+
+### Language Switching Doesn't Work
+
+**Symptom**: All language files have identical content
+
+**Causes**:
+- Language selector not found
+- React state not updating
+- Content not conditional on language
+
+**Solution**:
+- Verify language selector exists: `document.querySelector('[data-language-selector]')`
+- Check if content actually changes by language in browser
+- Increase `CONFIG.languageSwitchTimeout`
+
+### Asset Loading Errors
+
+**Symptom**: Scripts fail to load, 404 errors
+
+**Causes**:
+- `ASSET_PREFIX` not properly rewritten
+- Assets not built yet
+- Incorrect path resolution
+
+**Solution**:
+- Ensure `./public` directory exists with all assets
+- Check `ASSET_PREFIX` value matches expected URL
+- Verify `rewriteAssetUrls()` is working correctly
+
+### Memory Issues
+
+**Symptom**: Process crashes with OOM
+
+**Causes**:
+- Too many JSDOM instances
+- Large pages
+- Memory leaks
+
+**Solution**:
+- Process files sequentially (current implementation)
+- Reduce `CONFIG.hydrationTimeout`
+- Use `--max-old-space-size=4096` Node flag
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Simple Mode
+- **Speed**: ~50-100ms per page
+- **Memory**: ~50MB for 100 pages
+- **Use Case**: No language selectors, static content
+
+### Advanced Mode
+- **Speed**: ~2-5 seconds per page (per language)
+- **Memory**: ~200-500MB for 100 pages
+- **Use Case**: Language selectors, conditional content
+
+### Optimization Strategies
+
+1. **Parallel Processing** (future): Use worker threads for multiple pages
+2. **Caching**: Reuse JSDOM environment for same template types
+3. **Selective Generation**: Only regenerate changed pages
+4. **Hybrid Mode**: Use simple mode for pages without language selectors
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### 1. Smart Detection
+- Detect which pages actually need language processing
+- Skip pages where content doesn't change by language
+
+### 2. Incremental Generation
+```typescript
+interface IncrementalOptions {
+  changedFiles?: string[];  // Only regenerate these
+  compareHash?: boolean;    // Skip if content hash unchanged
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Parallel Processing
+```typescript
+import { Worker } from 'worker_threads';
+
+async function processInParallel(files: string[], workers: number) {
+  // Distribute files across worker threads
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Page Filtering
+Already designed in CLI but not implemented:
+
+```bash
+yarn generate-markdown --pages="docs/realtime/*"
+yarn generate-markdown --languages="javascript,python"
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+### Manual Testing
+
+```bash
+# 1. Build the site
+yarn build
+
+# 2. Check generated files
+ls public/docs/realtime/*.md
+
+# 3. Verify content differs by language
+diff public/docs/realtime/channels.javascript.md public/docs/realtime/channels.python.md
+
+# 4. Test CLI
+yarn generate-markdown:verbose
+```
+
+### Test Cases
+
+1. **Pages with language selector**: Should generate multiple `.{lang}.md` files
+2. **Pages without language selector**: Should generate single `.md` file
+3. **Invalid HTML**: Should fall back to simple mode
+4. **Missing assets**: Should handle gracefully
+5. **ASSET_PREFIX**: Should rewrite URLs correctly
+
+### Debugging
+
+Enable verbose logging:
+
+```bash
+VERBOSE=true yarn generate-markdown
+```
+
+Or use Node debugger:
+
+```bash
+node --inspect-brk scripts/generate-language-markdown.ts
+```
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+1. **Server-Side Only**: Cannot run in browser
+2. **Sequential Processing**: One page at a time (slow for large sites)
+3. **React Dependency**: Requires React to be fully functional
+4. **Limited Language Detection**: Relies on DOM or product mapping
+5. **No Incremental Updates**: Regenerates all files every time
+6. **Memory Intensive**: JSDOM + React uses significant RAM
+
+## Contributing
+
+When modifying the language generation:
+
+1. Test both simple and advanced modes
+2. Verify ASSET_PREFIX handling for staging/production
+3. Check memory usage for large page sets
+4. Update this documentation
+5. Add tests for new features
