I built a CLI tool in pure JS that generates documentation from your Node.js app's runtime data + source code
Ran into a classic problem where I had to onboard onto a project and nothing was documented and the people that knew how to were on PTO. At that moment I wish I had a tool that automated this and so I built it.
Depct is a free CLI tool that wraps your Node entry point, captures runtime behavior, and generates up-to-date technical documentation, architecture diagrams, OpenAPI specs, and error detection from runtime data + source code. It even generates an on-call runbook and onboarding guide.
Here's what it generated for a test payment service: https://app.depct.dev/project/c4e7874b-fff2-4eab-b58d-5cf8fcc29bbf
Feel free to give it a try, please let me know if you hate it and if you want higher limits on your project, happy to give them!
