Documenter.jl
Documentation generator for Julia that builds a site from Markdown files and the docstrings of Julia packages.
documenter.juliadocs.orgrepositorydocs
Documenter.jl is a documentation generator for Julia. It combines Markdown files with the docstrings of a Julia package into one inter-linked document, runs the Julia code blocks in the documentation as doctests, resolves cross references and checks for missing docstrings.
It is added with Julia’s package manager and driven by a build script. The generated HTML pages are hosted as files, for example on GitHub Pages, and the hosting guide describes building and deploying them from CI.
