DocX is a JavaDoc(Doxygen) like documentation system for C/C++, Java, etc. And it's more flexible. It's easy for you to extend supported input formats and to customize output representation.

The Docbkx Tools project provides a number of tools for supporting DocBook in a Maven environment. (Note that the source code for this project is hosted at http://code.google.com/p/docbkx-tools/.)

Docco is a documentation generator by Jeremy Ashkenas that embraces the literate-programming style: it takes your source code and produces annotated HTML documentation that shows your comments side-by-side with your code. The idea is to read code like a book — commentary on one side, code on the other — which helps reviewers and learners understand intent and implementation simultaneously. It supports many languages (via configuration) and is intentionally quick and dirty, prioritizing lightweight output rather than heavy tooling. For teams that favour documentation that stays close to the codebase (rather than entirely separate docs), Docco offers a pragmatic route to keep documentation aligned with implementation. Because the output is browser-readable, it can live in your repository or website and be regenerated easily. It’s particularly useful for open-source projects, teaching code, or scaffolding codebases where reader orientation matters.

Docmenta is a Java web-application for single source publishing and help authoring. The application allows collaborative creation of documentation, e-books and online-help. Supported output formats are PDF, HTML, WebHelp, EPUB (eBook) and DocBook. For more information, visit: http://www.docmenta.org

Doco is a simple but feature rich and powerful markup language for converting text documents into highly-presentable and navigable web content.

Docpress generates websites from your project's basic documentation; that is, at the very least, a README.md file. It also supports multiple Markdown pages in docs/. Under heavy development now; guides and instructions will magically appear here when we're stable. Documentation website generator. Generates great websites from Markdown files. Check out the Docpress Showcase to see how Docpress helped developers build great-looking websites.

DocsGPT is an open-source AI platform for deploying private RAG pipelines, AI agents, and enterprise search on your own infrastructure.

Choose your LLM: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, or local models. Works with Qdrant, MongoDB, and Elasticsearch and more. Deploy via Docker or Kubernetes with full data sovereignty. Build embeddable chat and search widgets, automate multi-step workflows with AI agents, and integrate via Slack, Telegram, Discord, or REST API. Enterprise features include RBAC, 99.9% uptime SLA, and dedicated support. MIT licensed.

A modular system for extracting and converting Python docstrings into useful structured formats like HTML, XML, and TeX. Project inactive. Development taken over by Docutils, http://docutils.sourceforge.net/.

This project aims to assist developers by allowing them to create documentation on their projects. Document can work with a number of languages, and allows you to document any portion of your source code.

E2compr is a small patch against the ext2 file system that allows on-the-fly compression and decompression. But this is not properly documented. So I want to document the code of e2compr with the help of other interested people.

Doceval is a software that allows to discover the documentation included in a tarball. Basically it serves to identify if a given software project has doc at all and helps with a report to evaluate how much documentation it has and how good it is.

Documentation Reflector is a simple way to make effective use of the C# XML documentation tags in your .NET assemblies. The output of Documentation Reflector is a usable XML file with enough information to generate MSDN-style documentation.

A documentation tool for XML DTDs, along the lines of javadoc for Java code.

Docuowl generates static single-page documentation from Markdown files. As a long-time fan of the documentation style made by Stripe, and Markdown, I decided to use the former as a base to create a pretty documentation generator that outputs something like Stripe's. Stripe also generously allowed me to use their layout, so here's a big thank you to them". Docuowl takes a directory as input. The directory is expected to have one directory for each section or group. Each group may have subsections, which by their turn must also be placed into directories. Each Section is required to have content.md file, containing the Frontmatter for that section, and optional sidenotes.md file, that will be rendered to the right of the section. The Frontmatter must contain at least a Title property, and an optional ID property containing a unique slug for that section. Each Group must contain a single meta.md file, containing a Frontmatter like a Section, and an optional content.

Docusaurus is a project that makes maintaining, building and deploying open source documentation websites incredibly easy. Simple to set up and start, Docusaurus allows you to save time and focus on your documentation. All you have to do is write docs and blog posts with Markdown and Docusaurus will handle the rest of the website build process. Docusaurus comes with pre-configured localization, as well as all the key pages and sections you need to get started. It’s also customizable, so you can have a site that is uniquely yours.

Docute is basically a JavaScript file that fetches Markdown files and renders them as a single-page application. It's totally runtime-driven so there's no server-side components involved which also means there's no build process. You only need to create an HTML file and a bunch of Markdown documents and your website is almost ready! Docsify and Docute are pretty much the same, but with different UI and different usages. Docute (60kB) is 3 times bigger than Docisfy (20kB), because we use Vue, Vue Router and Vuex while Docsify uses vanilla JavaScript under the hood. No build process, website is generated on the fly. A simple yet elegant UI that is dedicated to documentation. Leveraging the power of Markdown and Vue. Extensible plugin system, plenty of official and community plugins.

German (English below): DokChess ist eine voll funktionsfähige Schachengine. Sie dient als einfach zugängliches und zugleich attraktives Fallbeispiel für Architekturentwurf, -bewertung und -dokumentation. Der verständliche Aufbau lädt zum Experimentieren und zum Erweitern der Engine ein. Ziel ist nicht die höchstmögliche Spielstärke – dennoch gelingen Partien, die Gelegenheitsspielern Freude bereiten. DokChess ist eines der Fallbeispiele im Buch "Softwarearchitekturen dokumentieren und kommunizieren" von Stefan Zörner (Hanser 2012) English: DokChess is a Chess Engine implemented in Java. It is used as an example for software architecture documentation according to the arc42 template in a German book about documenting Software Architectures.
