Overview
Generate complete code documentation for your entire code base. Best code documentation tool for developers, teams, and organizations.
Many programmers agree that maintaining up-to-date code documentation is both challenging and extremely boring to create. However, a lack of code documentation can lead to all manner of situations that waste both time and money.
The situation is especially bad in the case of API documentation. Publicly available APIs that lack proper code documentation mean plenty of emails from developers asking for product support.
AI can solve many of the problems with code documentation. However, just throwing some code at ChatGPT and hoping it spews out properly written Swagger API documentation or UML documentation isn’t going to cut it.
That’s why we created Docuwriter.ai, an AI code generation tool that generates precisely the type of documentation you need, following all industry best practices.
How AI fixes the problem with existing code documentation tools
Although various tools have been created to make code documentation easier, these tools work predominantly on extensive code comments that programmers must maintain while they’re coding, which slows down productivity. When the code changes, a programmer must remember to update the comments, too.
The documentation generated from comments also isn’t very reader-friendly. It’s written “for programmers,” which can feel laborious to read.
Ideally, you’d write code documentation newly every time your code changed, analyzing what the new code does and looking for changes. In reality, however, such an approach has been totally unfeasible—until now.
Using AI, you can let programmers do what they do best—write code. Programmers can change code, fix errors, modify method signatures, and do whatever is necessary to improve the codebase without having to stop and think about the documentation—or update it.
The challenges of AI code documentation—and how Docuwriter.ai overcomes them
Several challenges exist when using AI to generate code documentation, such as:
Generative AI hallucination.
The need to prompt the AI precisely each time it generates code documentation so that it outputs documentation as close to industry standards as possible.
User-friendliness.
We’ve integrated generative AI features seamlessly into Docuwriter to overcome each of these failings.
Docuwriter generates highly specific code documentation through an intuitive user, without you needing to prompt it with custom instructions each time.
You simply upload a code file and tell the tool what type of code documentation you want to generate.
The best way to learn about something is to see it in action. So, instead of writing a long explanation, let’s show you how the Docuwriter.ai code generation tool works.
