🚀 Released a New Version of jsdoc-scribe

Chintan Goswami — Mon, 29 Jun 2026 11:02:04 +0000

Keeping documentation updated is difficult, especially when projects continue to grow.

To make this easier, I've been building jsdoc-scribe, an open-source CLI that generates JSDoc comments and beautiful HTML documentation automatically.

The newest release includes several improvements aimed at making documentation generation faster and more reliable.

Highlights

Faster processing
Improved JavaScript & TypeScript parsing
Better HTML output
Stability improvements
Bug fixes

My long-term vision is to build one of the most complete documentation generators for modern JavaScript ecosystems.

NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsdoc-scribe

I'd love feedback from the DEV Community.

If you have ideas, feature requests, or want to contribute, let me know.

Happy coding!

Stop Writing JSDoc Comments Manually

Chintan Goswami — Mon, 29 Jun 2026 07:44:49 +0000

Documentation is one of those things every team agrees is important, but almost nobody enjoys writing.

So I built JSDoc Scribe, an open-source npm package that automatically generates professional JSDoc comment blocks.

Why?

Because developers should focus on writing software, not repetitive comments.

Features

✅ Functions
✅ Classes
✅ Methods
✅ Interfaces
✅ Variables
✅ Constants
✅ TypeScript Support

Example

Before

function calculateTotal(items) {}

After

/**
 * Calculates the total...
 *
 * @param items
 * @returns
 */
function calculateTotal(items) {}

The project is still evolving, and I'd love your suggestions.
