Auto-generate Django project documentation including model schemas, URL patterns, admin configuration, and setup guides. Works for apps, packages, and full projects.
Django projects often grow to hundreds of models and dozens of apps with no documentation beyond the code itself. Writing a setup guide alone — covering settings, migrations, environment variables, and dependencies — takes hours.

Reads Django models and generates database schema documentation with field types and constraints
Documents URL patterns with view names, accepted methods, and expected parameters
Generates complete setup guide from settings.py — database, cache, email, and static files
Documents Django REST Framework serializers and ViewSets as API endpoint reference
