Auto-generate Spring Boot application documentation. Codec8 reads your controllers, service beans, repositories, and application.properties to produce complete developer docs.
Spring Boot applications have sprawling auto-configuration that makes them powerful but difficult to explain to someone new. Writing documentation that explains what beans exist, what each endpoint does, and how to run the app locally takes days.
Tailored documentation features for Spring Boot codebases
Documents @RestController and @Controller endpoints with request mappings and response types
Generates Spring Bean dependency graph showing @Autowired relationships between components
Documents application.properties and application.yml configuration keys with descriptions
Reads Spring Security configuration and documents which endpoints require which roles/authorities
From zero to published docs in under a minute
