Abstract

Audiovisual documentation of source code in an integrated development environment. A computing device initiates a knowledge transfer session for discussion of source code and generation of audiovisual source code documentation explaining segments of source code from a code base. An audiovisual interface containing a segment of code from the code base is displayed within the integrated development environment. Audio during the knowledge transfer session is recorded with a recording device. Code tracking indicators from an optical tracking device operated by a user are received when the user is reviewing and focused on the segment of code. The computing device determines via the code tracking indicators a module of the segment of code under review. Portions of the recorded audio are associated with the determined module of the segment of code to generate audiovisual source code documentation. The knowledge transfer session is terminated.
