Introducing ALDoc: a new command line tool for generating reference documentation for AL extensions
Microsoft has released a new command-line tool called ALDoc for generating reference documentation for AL extensions. The tool generates documentation from symbolic and syntactical information, code comments, and overall application structure based on input .app file(s). It permits the generation of a help site (private or public) with these reference articles, sorted by the application structure, based on the provided template. The tool is based on DocFx, a .NET tool that converts .NET assemblies, XML code comment, REST API Swagger files, and markdown into rendered HTML pages, JSON model, or PDF files. To use ALDoc, users need to install .NET SDK 6.0 or higher and then install the DocFx tool.
