DefaultDocumentation

As the name imply, this project lets you easily produce a "good enough" markdown documentation from the xml documentation produced by visual studio from comments.

NuGet

Requirement

framework4.5 or netcoreapp1.0

Usage

Once referenced in your project, if there is a <DocumentationFile>, markdown pages will be produced next to the xml file on compilation. Please be advised that existing *.md files in the directory will be deleted.

Should you want the markdown files to be produced in a different directory, you can do so by adding a <DefaultDocumentationFolder> element in your csproj with the desired path.
