Use your source code to document your application

For many development teams, writing and updating documentation can feel like a chore, especially when the codebase changes frequently. While developers often consider the source code as its own documentation, this perspective might not resonate with all stakeholders. Moreover, the source code might not adequately illustrate how different components interact.

What if we could transform our source code into comprehensive documentation that benefits both the team and stakeholders?

In this session, we will explore how to leverage Roslyn to generate documentation directly from your .NET source code. We’ll delve into creating diagrams that depict the structure and relationships within an aggregate and sequence diagrams that illustrate the flow throughout the application. We’ll render these using file formats such as PlantUML, Mermaid, and Markdown.
