I want to integrate automatic code documentation with knowledge graph/wiki software. Think Logseq [^0] or Obsidian but with code docs integrated into it, both from public documentation sites but also internal/private codebases. I've done no work to begin implementing this and I have no idea if anyone would find it helpful or not. For me, frequently the thing that slows me down most is having to break my coding flow and search for docs on the thing I'm writing. There's integrations in my editor for some things (Rust and Go both have pretty great support for this with their LSPs), but often I need more in-depth docs than what is immediately provided. Further, I firmly believe that most of the knowledge about a codebase should live in or next to that codebase. I'd really like to have a knowledge graph that integrates fully into the development cycle.
