How do to generate HTML or PDF Docs from Source annotations (summary).
For a Project i look into how i could create a documentation from the annotated source. I found a few solutions, but either theyre not compatible with c# anymore, ore plain dont work.
What tools do you know that work in modern .net6 and VS22 for this task?

OpenAPI documentation generator?
@Johnny afaik (and what i researched now) it is just for asp.net applications.
It is universal - from python to Java
you could use it for every project you create
OpenAPI documents the API endpoints, not the code
I think Doxygen is used most often
thanks @Angius for confirming.
i took a look at doxygen, but it looks like i would have to rework all docs to make it work since it is using another format
You might want to write your own parser lol
i would love too... but i am not allowed 😄
It's possible using Roslyn, you can get the doc comments as well, it's... uh,
LeadingTrivia property or some such?
Ah, gotchait seems like docs are a part of development noone did treally tray to build a up to date product for generating propper documentations.
at the moment i am experimenting with sandcastle.. but this also looks like its missing a lot
