grape-docs
Automatically generate markdown documentation from your grape API
Description
grape-docs automagically generates documentation for your Grape API in various formats.
The Gem will automatically analyze your Grape API structure, mounts, namespaces and routes, and will build a markdown documentation in separate files.
It's best used combined with GitBook and gitbook-plugin-api to transform your markdown documentation into a good-looking and browsable API navigation.
