nim: Generate HTML documentation for a module (output will be placed in the current directory).
$ nim doc ${filename-nim}
try on your machine
The command "nim doc ${filename-nim}" is using the Nim programming language's built-in documentation generator to generate documentation for a Nim source code file.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "nim" is the executable command for the Nim compiler.
- "doc" is a sub-command of the Nim compiler used for generating documentation.
- "${filename-nim}" is a placeholder for the actual filename and its extension. The "-nim" extension indicates that the file contains Nim source code.
The command can be used in a command-line interface or terminal to generate documentation for a Nim source code file. The generated documentation typically includes information about the file's contents, such as functions, types, variables, etc., along with any associated comments or documentation strings.
