About

Generate API reference pages, landing pages, and how-to material from a software project with DocFX. It brings .NET source code and Markdown topics into one documentation workflow, so developers can combine machine-generated reference content with written guidance. The result is a browsable static HTML site rather than documentation confined to source files.

DocFX extracts triple-slash comments from C# and VB source files to create API reference documentation. Markdown files can supply tutorials, how-to guides, and other authored topics alongside those references. Templates let teams alter the generated site’s layout and visual style to match a project or organization.

Developers use DocFX when documenting .NET libraries, applications, or internal projects that require both technical reference pages and explanatory content. The resulting HTML can be placed on a web server or published through services such as GitHub Pages. Microsoft’s current release is version 2.59.4, and it is freeware for Windows.
