DendroDocs.Tool

DendroDocs.Tool is the successor to the Living Documentation Analyzer, providing a solution for analyzing dotnet projects and generating detailed JSON outputs. This tool is a key component of the DendroDocs ecosystem, designed to bridge the gap between evolving code and up-to-date documentation.

Features

A command-line tool that analyzes dotnet projects or solutions and produces a JSON file that follows the schema defined in the DendroDocs Schema repository.

Shared Code

DendroDocs.Tool uses the shared library from the DendroDocs.Shared repository, ensuring reusability across different parts of the DendroDocs dotnet ecosystem.

Prerequisites

• .NET 8.0 SDK or newer.

Installation
