Abstract

A system and method may provide assistance to programmers related to the creation of documentation. In some aspects, the system may automatically generate documentation-related text in source code. In other aspects, the system may automatically detect the need for the programmer to edit long-from documentation when changes are detected in code. Moreover, the system may provide for the aggregation or creation of documentation content based on one or more data sources, such as by embedding links to those data sources into documentation. In some aspects, some components of the system are based on machine learning methods and are trained on collected data.
