About

JSDoc is an API documentation generator for JavaScript that generates HTML documentation from source code, similar to Javadoc or phpDocumentor.

It parses JSDoc annotations written by developers in source code comments, supports custom templates, runs as a Node.js command-line tool, and is supported by IDEs such as VS Code and Visual Studio.

TypeDoc is a documentation generator for TypeScript projects that converts source-code comments into HTML documentation.

It uses the TypeScript compiler to extract type information, supports TSDoc and JSDoc tags with Markdown rendering, plugin and theme customization, dual HTML or JSON output, and a watch mode that regenerates documentation automatically when files change.
