# docbuilder(6)

The DocBuilder Application

## NAME

docbuilder - The DocBuilder Application

## DESCRIPTION

DocBuilder provides functionality for generating HTML documentation for Erlang modules and Erlang/OTP applications from XML source code and/or EDoc comments in Erlang source code.

## LIMITATIONS

DocBuilder is primarily intended for generating documentation for Erlang/OTP itself. That is, no attempt has been made to create a tool suitable for generating documentation in general.
