+## Configure Json
+
+This script modifies `docfx.json` to reproduce the customisation options that are most frequently applied for Bonsai package documentation websites. This script assumes a (python)[https://www.python.org/downloads/] installation. Use the script on a  newly created `docfx.json` file:
+
+```ps1
+python Configure-Json.py
+```
+
+Verify the modified `docfx.json` and amend as necessary (especially for external Bonsai developers).
