The Problems
Back in 2019, Go was having trouble with its centralized
documentation feature and development work was in
progress. During that time, all documentations of a Go
package can only be accessed via
$ go doc -all .
. This is annoying and a
hamstrung problem for any Go developer.
After exploring some solutions especially with a product
like GoHugo, website, it was decided that
the package documentation solution shall be developed
for the sake of solving the problem. Therefore, the
Godocgen Project was initialized.

(AST) of a given Go Package. From there, the AST data
are analyzed and processed to output a given format. The
format is provided in a list of partial fragments.
At the point of release, the Project was its in its
final unit-testing with 100%
code coverage
with the latest v0.0.2
capable of output
Markdown format or HTML format.
