mkdocs-material-9.7.7

[!WARNING]

Material for MkDocs is approaching end of life

Material for MkDocs is scheduled to reach end of life on November 5, 2026. Until then, maintenance is limited to critical bug fixes and security updates. After this date, the project will remain available on PyPI and GitHub, but no further maintenance is planned except in exceptional circumstances.

For users looking for a long-term, actively developed successor, we're building Zensical – a next-generation static site generator designed for technical documentation. If you're planning a new documentation project or evaluating your long-term options, we invite you to take a look.

Organizations requiring support beyond this date are welcome to get in touch to discuss available options.
