    Natural Docs is an open-source documentation generator for multiple programming languages. You document your code in a natural syntax that reads like plain English. Natural Docs then scans your code and builds high-quality HTML documentation from it. SourceForge houses the source code and issue database for the old Perl version of Natural Docs, version 1.52. It is still available but no longer being updated. Please see NaturalDocs.org for the 2.x source code and issue database. However, you can still download the both the old and the new 2.x releases of Natural Docs here.

    ExpressJS.com

    ExpressJS.com

    The Express.js Website

    This repository contains the source for the Express web site and documentation, the canonical reference for developers using the Express framework. It organizes material into API reference, getting-started guides, best practices, and topic-focused explanations such as routing, middleware, error handling, templating, and performance. Versioned docs help readers match API behavior to the framework version they’re running, reducing confusion during upgrades. The site showcases common patterns through concise examples, making it easy to translate concepts into working code. In addition to core Express usage, the documentation surfaces ecosystem guidance on things like security headers, structured logging, and integration with view engines or ORMs. Because it is open to community contributions, the documentation evolves alongside Express itself, reflecting real-world questions and solutions.

    NGINX Admin’s Handbook

    NGINX Admin’s Handbook

    How to improve NGINX performance, security, and other important things

    nginx-admins-handbook is a practical, in-depth guide for configuring, securing, and operating NGINX across real-world deployments. It distills years of research, notes, and field experience into a single handbook that complements the official docs with concrete rules, explanations, and curated external references. The handbook spans fundamentals and advanced topics alike, from HTTP and SSL/TLS basics to reverse proxy patterns, performance tuning, debugging workflows, and hardening strategies. A centerpiece is its prioritized checklist of 79 rules, grouped by criticality, helping readers focus on what most impacts security, reliability, and speed. Instead of copy-paste snippets in isolation, it emphasizes understanding trade-offs, avoiding common pitfalls, and balancing security with usability. Designed for system administrators and web application engineers, it aims to be a living companion that encourages experimentation, measurement, and continuous improvement of NGINX configurations

    Office Docs PowerShell

    Office Docs PowerShell

    PowerShell Reference for Office Products

    This repository aggregates documentation, examples, and cmdlet references for PowerShell modules that manage Microsoft 365 and Office services. It collects guidance for admins on tasks such as Exchange Online mail flow, SharePoint site provisioning, Teams configuration, and tenant-level policy settings—often including parameter examples, common scenarios, and troubleshooting notes. The docs are structured so operators can copy/paste ready examples into their automation scripts or adapt them for bulk changes using CSV-driven loops. Because cloud management frequently involves idempotent, auditable operations, the content emphasizes safe patterns (what changes will do, UI equivalents, and rollback hints). Versioning matters here: the repository tracks changes as Microsoft updates service APIs and cmdlets, helping teams stay current and avoid deprecated workflows.
