Ever opened a codebase and wondered how all the pieces fit together?
That's the problem I'm working to solve with Barkly Docs, an open-source project from Barkly Labs. 💗
Barkly Docs reads software projects and generates human-friendly HTML documentation to help people understand what's inside a codebase and how its components connect.
🐾 Project overviews
🔎 Entity documentation
🔗 Component relationships
🗺️ Visual relationship maps
The goal is to make unfamiliar codebases easier to navigate, understand, and contribute to—without requiring everyone to manually dig through thousands of files.
I'm building Barkly Docs in the open, improving its language support and performance as development continues.
This project is part of the larger Barkly Labs mission:
Can we make computers front-load the hard stuff for humans?
