Auto-generate Svelte component documentation from your .svelte files. Codec8 reads props, events, slots, and store usage to produce clean API docs for Svelte libraries.
Svelte component libraries lack the ecosystem of auto-documentation tools that React enjoys. Writing comprehensive prop documentation, slot descriptions, and event listings for every component is still a fully manual task.
Tailored documentation features for Svelte codebases
Documents .svelte component props, events (on:), and named slots from component source
Generates Svelte writable/readable store reference with the shape of stored state
Documents Svelte transitions and animations used in components with parameter documentation
Detects whether the project targets Svelte 4 or Svelte 5 (runes) and documents accordingly
