    Docco

    Docco

    Literate Programming can be Quick and Dirty

    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.

    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.

It addresses topics like cost management, lock-in risks, service selection, and alternatives, helping users make informed architectural decisions. As a collaborative effort, og-aws grows and evolves with community contributions, ensuring its content remains relevant in the fast-changing cloud ecosystem.
