Create digital manuals without any coding or design skills. Chyrid's intuitive manual editor makes it easy for anyone. Start creating now!
Hey fellow Chyridians (yeah, we just decided that this is a term now),
after our launch here on product hunt last week, we gained more users than we could have imagined. So first of all, thanks a lot for that!
Along with our users came a lot of feedback and ideas for new features that we should add, one of them being embedded code-blocks and that is what we went for first! We are excited to announce that as of today, you can use the new Source Code block! This block will allow you to paste your code as well as select the programming language to allow for proper syntax highlighting when being rendered in the finished manual.

Hi hunters! 👋
I’m Nico, co-founder of Chyrid, and I’m incredibly excited to share our very first SaaS product with you!
Chyrid (chyrid.com) is a platform that lets anyone create digital manuals without needing any design or coding skills. With a simple drag-and-drop editor, users can structure their content easily, and Chyrid automatically generates a clean, professional layout that’s ready to share.
💡Why we built this
We’ve seen how frustrating it can be when important knowledge is scattered or stuck in people’s heads. And creating polished documentation often requires design tools or technical know-how. With Chyrid, we wanted to make it effortless to create well-structured, good-looking manuals — so that teams can focus entirely on their content, not on formatting.
🚀What can you do with Chyrid?
- Create onboarding manuals for new team members
- Document workflows, processes, and best practices
- Share internal knowledge in a visual, accessible way
- Build structured guides—without any design tools
Thanks so much for checking out Chyrid – it really means a lot to us! 💚
Looking forward to your thoughts and feedback!
@nico_beerepoot @deniz_akyildiz This looks so smooth and simple, and a great balance between having a nice looking manual vs. not spending 3,000 hours making it haha. I can not wait to check this out.
This would be perfect for an FAQ manual for sure.
Is it possible to link to other pages/sections of a manual? I couldn't tell when looking at some of the demos. Congrats on this!

@quinnballard thanks for your feedback!
Our goal is to make it as quick and easy as possible for anyone to create a beautiful manual.
At the moment, you can only link to other pages using URLs — the ability to create internal links within the manual isn’t available yet, but it’s high on our to-do list. 😊
@nico_beerepoot Love it, thanks, Nico!
Just spent ~15 min building this short Product Hunt Playbook in Chyrid and I was genuinely surprised by how friction-free the flow feels:
Drag-and-drop blocks are snappy and opinionated in a good way – it’s hard to make an ugly page.
The single-page scroll + left sidebar navigation is perfect for quick reference docs.
“Editing / Published” toggle + share-link = zero-effort distribution (love that viewers don’t need an account to access manuals).
A few thoughts while the experience is still fresh:
Templates: A handful of “Onboarding”, “Release notes”, “How-to” blueprints would chop the first-draft time in half.
Real-time preview pane: Editing on the left / live view on the right would help catch spacing quirks without extra clicks.
Embeds & rich blocks: Loom, Figma, or even simple code snippets would open you up to dev docs and design hand-offs.
Version history + roles: As soon as teams collaborate, who changed what and simple viewer/editor permissions become must-haves.
Light analytics: Page views & drop-off per section will be very useful.
Overall, in my opinion Chyrid already nails the just ship a clean manual in minutes promise. Keep building! 👏

@deniz_akyildiz I'm glad my feedback was helpful—if you need any beta testing, feel free to reach out 🙏.
Chyrid simplifies creating digital manuals by removing the need for coding or design expertise. Its intuitive editor makes manual creation accessible to everyone—great for quick, professional results.
