Technical Documentation Creator

Create comprehensive HTML technical documentation with code examples and API workflows.

When to Use

  • "Create API documentation for [endpoints]"
  • "Generate technical docs for [system]"
  • "Document API reference"
  • "Create developer documentation"

Components

  1. Overview: purpose, key features, tech stack
  2. Getting Started: installation, setup, quick start
  3. API Reference: endpoints with request/response examples
  4. Code Examples: syntax-highlighted code blocks
  5. Architecture: system diagram (SVG)
  6. Workflows: step-by-step processes

HTML Structure

html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>[API/System] Documentation</title>
  <style>
    body { font-family: system-ui; max-width: 1000px; margin: 0 auto; }
    pre { background: #1e1e1e; color: #d4d4d4; padding: 15px; border-radius: 4px; overflow-x: auto; }
    .endpoint { background: #f7fafc; padding: 15px; margin: 10px 0; border-left: 4px solid #4299e1; }
    code { background: #e2e8f0; padding: 2px 6px; border-radius: 3px; }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>[System] Documentation</h1>
  <!-- Overview, Getting Started, API Reference, Examples -->
</body>
</html>

API Endpoint Pattern

html
<div class="endpoint">
  <h3><span style="color: #48bb78;">GET</span> /api/users/{id}</h3>
  <p>Retrieve user by ID</p>

  <h4>Request</h4>
  <pre><code>curl -X GET https://api.example.com/users/123</code></pre>

  <h4>Response</h4>
  <pre><code>{
  "id": 123,
  "name": "John Doe",
  "email": "john@example.com"
}</code></pre>
</div>

Code Block Pattern

html
<pre><code>// Installation
npm install package-name

// Usage
import { feature } from 'package-name';
const result = feature.doSomething();</code></pre>

Workflow

  1. Extract API endpoints, methods, parameters
  2. Create overview and getting started sections
  3. Document each endpoint with examples
  4. Add code snippets for common operations
  5. Include architecture diagram if relevant
  6. Write to [system]-docs.html

Use semantic colors for HTTP methods: GET (green), POST (blue), DELETE (red).
