NativeDoc™ is a documentation system for LiveCode (Runtime Revolution)

NativeDoc 2 enables you to browse or generate a documentation from a set of documented script. The documentation is extracted directly from the scripts and is directly browsable within the LiveCode IDE. Review, search and navigate through your documentation with NativeDoc 2.

NativeDoc™ uses the standard Doxygen/JavaDoc documentation block style, so no need to re-learn a new code documentation style.

NativeDoc™ helps you to not being lost inside your projects and enables you to reuse easily already written functions/commands for a faster application development. Also, if you are creating an application for a customer, you can give to him the beautiful API reference manual of the application that you have written for him, without any extra-works.

Industry standard source code documentation

NativeDoc is compliant with the industry leading documentation format, DoxyGen/JavaDoc. To learn how to write a documentation block for NativeDoc, simply search for a DoxyGen or JavaDoc tutorial in your language and you will be ready to document your code!

Incredible documentation Navigator New in 2.0!

NativeDoc 2 introduce the Dictionary Navigator, with this incredible tool you are now able to navigate through your documentation within the LiveCode IDE! Review, search and navigate easily through your documented stacks.

Share your documentation for efficient teamwork! New in 2.0!

The NativeDoc Dictionary Navigator enables you to import/export NativeDoc XML documentation. Have you written a stack and want to share it? Export your documentation with NativeDoc as XML file and other users will be able to import it to the dictionary Navigator. In addition, it is not required to have a NativeDoc license to import external documentation!

Document your code to prevent any confusion!

A well written application is one that is highly commented. A code must be easily readable and understandable by a person from outside the project in order to gain money with reusability. NativeDoc has been made for this, and it is being used in more and more big LiveCode projects, like SQL Yoga and NativeGeometry.

Well-presented and efficient HTML documentation

NativeDoc generates a complete website that is fully customisable with templates. It has a navigation tree that enables you to quickly find what you need inside your application.

I have to write a lot of API documentation and make it available on the web. Before I started using NativeDoc I had messed around with my own solutions but none of them were nearly as polished, flexible and powerful as NativeDoc. NativeDoc has made it so easy for me to write and publish high-quality API documentation that I can't envision doing it any other way.
