About

DocFX is an open-source static site generator for .NET API documentation that builds developer documentation websites from source code comments and Markdown files.

It provides customizable templates, generates API references from C#, F#, and Visual Basic projects, can use additional documentation sources including Swagger files, supports richer Markdown syntax with extensions, and includes built-in workflows for publishing generated documentation to GitHub Pages and Azure Websites.

Javadoc is a tool for generating API documentation in HTML format from doc comments in Java source code.

It is included in the Java SDK and supports standard tags for parameters, return values, exceptions, and deprecation, custom doclets and taglets, built-in search, DocLint validation, and Markdown comments in Java 23 and later.
