Codec8 transforms TypeScript interfaces, generics, and decorators into beautiful API documentation. Your tsconfig is already half the documentation — let us finish it.
TypeScript projects have gold-standard type information that should generate documentation automatically — but most teams still write docs by hand, letting them drift out of sync with the actual types.
Tailored documentation features for TypeScript codebases
Renders TypeScript interfaces, enums, and generic types into human-readable API tables
Extracts TSDoc (@param, @returns, @example) and converts to structured docs
Documents decorators used in NestJS, Angular, and TypeORM projects
Detects strict mode, path aliases, and monorepo workspace structure from tsconfig.json
From zero to published docs in under a minute

Yes. Codec8 reads both .ts source files and .d.ts declaration files. For libraries that ship declarations, it can generate docs directly from the type definitions.
Codec8 simplifies deeply nested generics into readable plain-English descriptions while still showing the exact type signature, so documentation is useful for both beginners and advanced users.
Yes. Codec8 detects npm/yarn/pnpm workspaces and generates per-package documentation plus a top-level monorepo overview showing how packages relate to each other.
