This is a bunch of text that will appear in the light-background section to the left of your docs.
Welcome to the Kittn API! You can use our API to access Kittn API endpoints, which can get information on various cats, kittens, and breeds in our database.
## This is a Header of One of Your API Endpoints
We have language bindings in Shell, Ruby, and Python! You can view code examples in the dark area to the right, and you can switch the programming language of the examples with the tabs in the top right.
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
This example API documentation page was created with [Slate](http://github.com/tripit/slate). Feel free to edit it and use it as a base for your own API's documentation.
## Another Endpoint Header
# Authentication
More text here. This all appears in the area on the left.
### This is a Subheader (won't appear in the table of contents)
> To authorize, use this code:
```ruby
# this is a ruby code block that will appear in the dark area on the right
# this is a shell code block that will appear in the dark area on the right
echo"hello, world"
# With shell, you can just pass the correct header with each request
curl "api_endpoint_here"
-H"Authorization: meowmeowmeow"
```
> Make sure to replace `meowmeowmeow` with your API key.
Kittn uses API keys to allow access to the API. You can register a new Kittn API key at our [developer portal](http://example.com/developers).
Kittn expects for the API key to be included in all API requests to the server in a header that looks like the following:
`Authorization: meowmeowmeow`
You must replace `meowmeowmeow` with your personal API key from our developer portal.
# Kittens
## Get All Kittens
