Create html documentation for C# code [closed]

Question

I'm currently working on a C# project and VisualAssist generates these fancy /// <summary></summary> comments for me and I've been using them do document my code.

I assume there must be a way to use these comments to create HTML documentation like those done by Doxygen or Javadoc. How do I do that?

Answer 1

Doxygen or Sandcastle help file builder are the primary tools that will extract XML documentation into HTML (and other forms) of external documentation.

Note that you can combine these documentation exporters with documentation generators - as you've discovered, Resharper has some rudimentary helpers, but there are also much more advanced tools to do this specific task, such as GhostDoc (for C#/VB code with XML documentation) or my addin Atomineer Pro Documentation (for C#, C++/CLI, C++, C, VB, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, JScript, PHP, Unrealscript code containing XML, Doxygen, JavaDoc or Qt documentation).
