When creating software, code alone is insufficient. There must be text along with it to describe various aspects of its intended operation.
One can easily understand the source code through it's technical documentation. The idea of auto-generating documentation is attractive to programmers for various reasons. For example, because it is extracted from the source code itself (for example, through comments), the programmer can write it while referring to the code, and use the same tools used to create the source code to make the documentation. This makes it much easier to keep the documentation up-to-date. Doxygen is a documentation generator, a tool for writing software reference documentation. So can I use Doxygen for generating technical documentation? -- Er.
