How to Use Structured Data in MkDocs

Have you ever wondered how some documentation pages show up in search results with features like expandable FAQs, breadcrumb trails, or instructional step-by-steps? That’s the power of structured data. Structured data refers to a standardized format for providing information about a web page and classifying its content. It helps search engines understand the content of the page more accurately and display it in enhanced ways directly in search results. The Material theme for MkDocs already offers a solid foundation for SEO, but there are still ways to fine-tune and improve how individual pages are indexed and presented.
