66c62d9684GITHUB_TOKEN doesn't have createPullRequest permission when triggered via repository_dispatch from external repos, so `gh pr create` failed with "Resource not accessible by integration" and the v2.8.4 bump never landed. Use the PAT instead, mirroring the fix already applied in WasabiWalletWebSite. Also switch the deployment dispatch to the PAT: repository_dispatch events created with GITHUB_TOKEN do not trigger workflow runs. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]> |

Wasabi Wallet 2.0 Documentation
Wasabi Wallet is an open-source, non-custodial, privacy focused Bitcoin wallet for desktop. It implements a trustless privacy technique, called WabiSabi CoinJoin.
This is Wasabi Wallet's open-source documentation repository. Here you will find information about the nuances of privacy in Bitcoin, how Wasabi solves some of the existing problems, and how you can use this tool to defend yourself.
If you would like to support the project by educating other people, this documentation repository is the right place for your efforts! If you have a question regarding the documentation, please open an issue. If you have an answer to a question, please open a pull request. For more details on how to contribute, see the contribution checklist.
If you need help regarding the software specifically, please check out Discussions in Wasabi Wallet's main repository.

VuePress
The Wasabi documentation website is built using an open-source static site generator called VuePress. Its configuration and theme are extremely customizable, and it offers great defaults out-of-the-box. Check out the VuePress website for details on how to use it.
To contribute to the content of the website, you can make PRs related to the markdown files in the /docs/ directory, and if merged, the changes will automatically be integrated into the documentation website by VuePress.
Know that you do not need to understand/deal with VuePress at all in this case.
Writing Conventions
- Wasabi [capitalized]
- coinjoin [not capitalized, one word]
- WabiSabi [capitalized, one word]
- Every sentence must start in a new line.
- For a paragraph, add an
empty lineor<br>in the markdown.
Reference files
Please consider this repository structure for hyperlinks, and use relative links whenever possible, for example:
[What is a coinjoin?](FAQ-Introduction.md#what-is-a-coinjoin)
Embedding images
The images are stored in the /docs/.vuepress/public/ directory.
They can be embedded via the following markdown tags:
Embedding videos
Youtube videos and playlists can be embedded via the following custom markdown tags:
[](https://youtu.be/VIDEO_ID)
Optionally you can also specify the start position of a video in seconds (e.g. starts at 100 seconds):
[](https://youtu.be/VIDEO_ID?t=123)
And the index of the video of a playlist (e.g. starts the third video):
[](https://youtu.be/VIDEO_ID?list=PLAYLIST_ID)
If the image doesn't appear, that usually happens with older videos, use hqdefault.jpg instead of maxresdefault.jpg
In case that the thumbnail doesn't fit well with the documentation, a default image can be added as custom thumbnail, located at /Logo_without_text_with_bg_dark_with_yt.png.
Currently, all thumbnails have been set to this default image as a temporary solution because videos are old, sometimes not under our control, and the thumbnails were irrelevant.
Text Highlights
There are three types of text highlights that can be used to display different colored boxes.
A green box displaying a friendly tip:
:::tip
foo
:::
A yellow box with a cautious warning:
:::warning
foo
:::
A red box with a clear danger, you can also add a title foo to any container:
:::danger foo
bar
:::
Frequently asked questions
Use this markdown box with the headers to write the FAQ:
### question
answer answer answer.
answer answer answer.
Variables
To have a single place to maintain universal strings like the current Wasabi version number, we use variables in the Markdown (i.e. ${currentVersion}and ${zksnacksPublicKeyFingerprint}).
These variables are managed in docs/.vuepress/config.ts.
Occurrences of ${variableName} get substituted before the Markdown is processed.
