More Info

Swimm is the only documentation tool built for developers

The official Swimm extension for VS Code.

Internal documentation you can trust

Create, maintain, and discover documentation – without ever leaving the IDE.

Keep that documentation up to date as part of your workflow, even before pushing changes.
