TypeDoc

What is TypeDoc?

TypeScript projects benefit from comprehensive API documentation that clearly outlines the structure, functionality, and usage of the codebase. The TypeDoc tool provides a robust solution for generating high-quality, standards-compliant documentation from TypeScript source files. Leveraging TypeScript's rich type information, TypeDoc extracts detailed metadata about classes, methods, properties, and more, presenting it in a well-structured, easily navigable format. The generated output can be customized with templates, themes, and plugins to align with project-specific branding and documentation requirements. TypeDoc supports a variety of output formats, including HTML, Markdown, and JSON, enabling seamless integration with various development workflows and publishing platforms. By automating the documentation generation process, TypeDoc ensures that project documentation remains up-to-date and synchronized with the evolving codebase, enhancing developer productivity and the overall user experience
