OpenAPI Generator
OpenAPI Generator allows generation of API client libraries
With 50+ client generators, you can easily generate code to interact with any server which exposes an OpenAPI document. Maintainers of APIs may also automatically generate and distribute clients as part of official SDKs. Each client supports different options and features, but all templates can be replaced with your own Mustache-based templates. Getting started with server development can be tough, especially if you're evaluating technologies. We can reduce the burden when you bring your own OpenAPI document. Some generators support Inversion of Control, allowing you to iterate on design via your OpenAPI document without worrying about blowing away your entire domain layer when you regenerate code. Ever wanted to iteratively design a MySQL database, but writing table declarations was too tedious? OpenAPI documents allow you to convert the metadata about your API into some other format. -

Optic
Generate, Diff, and Test OpenAPI Descriptions
Vizualize API changes to improve the quality of reviews. Test API changes to ensure nothing bad slips through. OpenAPI diffs are difficult to read. Because these files contain references, small changes can have a large effect on your API. Linters can not check for backward compatibility or enforce versioning and deprecation policies. Optic adds a visual changelog to every Pull Request that makes it easy to see exactly what API changes have been proposed. Optic tests each set of API changes in CI, making it more powerful than a linter. Our built-in checks will help any team ship a more reliable API. OpenAPI diffs are very difficult to review, comprehend and give feedback on. Optic’s changelogs are easy to understand allowing anyone (even non-developers) to participate in review. Optic goes beyond linting OpenAPI, it lets you write test about each set of API changes. We also make it easy to share your API standards. -

docToolchain
AsciiDoc Toolchain for technical Software Documentation
docToolchain is a toolkit built around the “docs as code” philosophy, designed to make writing, maintaining, and publishing technical documentation as smooth as software development itself. It provides a suite of scripts and integrations to generate documentation from AsciiDoc (and related formats), run automated checks, incorporate diagrams, and publish outputs in different formats (HTML, PDF, etc.). The framework encourages documentation and architecture artifacts to live alongside source code, versioned in the same repositories, so changes in code and docs can evolve together. It supports templates (such as the arc42 architecture template), reusable snippets, and modular documentation where different aspects (API docs, architecture, user guides) are composed. The toolchain also includes validation stages (e.g. sanity checks, broken link detection) to catch issues before publication. -

jsdoc-to-markdown
Generate markdown documentation from jsdoc-annotated javascript
Generates markdown API documentation from jsdoc annotated source code. Useful for injecting API docs into project README files. By default, dmd generates github-flavored markdown. Not all markdown parsers render gfm correctly. If your generated docs look incorrect on sites other than Github (e.g. npmjs.org) try enabling this option to disable Github-specific syntax. Two options to render parameter lists: 'list' or 'table' (default). Table format works well in most cases but switch to list if things begin to look crowded / squashed. By default, the output of each invocation of the main generation methods (render, getTemplateData etc) is stored in the cache (your system's temporary directory). Future jsdoc2md invocations with the same input options and source code will return the output immediately from cache, making the tool much faster/cheaper. If the input options or source code changes, fresh output will be generated. -
