Documenting new code during development? Reviewing old code during project hand-offs or support? Docify is here to help by generating natural language comments from source code.
Docify empowers developers with a wide range of controls, including options for customizing the length and level of detail of generated comments, from succinct to descriptive.
Supported languages: C, C++, C#, Go, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Python, and Ruby with more added in the future.
Note: If auto-detect is selected, our system makes a guess of the programming language based on its syntax. For better results, we recommend selecting a programming language.
Select the docstring format.
(Optional) Select the human language of the generated comments. By default, comments are generated in English. If a different language is selected, the comments are translated after generation. See supported languages.
(Recommended) Enable More expressive comments to generate longer comments with more detailed descriptions.
(Recommended) Enable Inline comments to get short descriptions of important blocks of code.
(Optional) Enable Side panel review to see suggested comments on the side panel before inserting into the source code or rejecting.
