Doxygen is a JavaDoc like documentation system for C++, C, Java and IDL.

Zeal is a simple offline documentation browser inspired by Dash. Get binary builds for Windows and Linux from the download page. After installing Zeal go to Tools ⟶ Docsets to browse and download docsets. You can limit search results to specific (or a set of specific) docsets. The docset filter and the search query are delimited by a colon character (:). If you prefer, you can start Zeal with a query from the command line. You can also search multiple docsets separating them with a comma. You can limit the search scope by using ':' to indicate the desired docsets.

NOTE! We have moved to https://gitlab.com/msc-generator/msc-generator All development happens there. Also, download new releases & submit issues there. A tool to draw various charts from textual descriptions. Currently, three types of charts are supported: Message Sequence Charts, generic Graphs, and Block Diagrams, with more to be added in the future. There is a command-line version for Linux and Mac (replacing mscgen), which now sports a GUI, as well. Msc-generator allows fine control over the appearance and has a rich feature set complete with detailed documentation. On Windows, you can embed the charts in a document or presentation and simply double-click it in Office to edit them. On Linux and the Mac, a command-line version is available, and a GUI, as well. A .deb package is available starting from Debian Bookworm (currently testing) and Ubuntu Jammy Jellyfish (22.04) from the official repositories. For older releases see the Wiki. A Mac homebrew package is available.

Natural Docs is an open-source documentation generator for multiple programming languages. You document your code in a natural syntax that reads like plain English. Natural Docs then scans your code and builds high-quality HTML documentation from it. SourceForge houses the source code and issue database for the old Perl version of Natural Docs, version 1.52. It is still available but no longer being updated. Please see NaturalDocs.org for the 2.x source code and issue database. However, you can still download the both the old and the new 2.x releases of Natural Docs here.

Are you drowning in information, but starving for knowledge? Where do you keep your private remarks like ideas, personal plans, gift tips, how-tos, dreams, business vision, finance strategy, auto coaching notes? Loads of documents, sketches and remarks spread around the file system, cloud, web and Post-it notes? Are you affraid of your knowledge privacy? Are you able to find then once you create them? Do you know how are they mutually related when you read or write them? No? MindForger is open, free, well performing Markdown IDE which respects your privacy and enables security. It is actually more than an editor or IDE - it's human mind inspired personal knowledge management tool.

The Guidelines Support Library (GSL) contains functions and types that are suggested for use by the C++ Core Guidelines maintained by the Standard C++ Foundation. This repo contains Microsoft's implementation of GSL. The entire implementation is provided inline in the headers under the gsl directory. The implementation generally assumes a platform that implements C++14 support. While some types have been broken out into their own headers (e.g. gsl/span), it is simplest to just include gsl/gsl and gain access to the entire library. This project makes use of the Google Test testing library. Please see the ThirdPartyNotices.txt file for details regarding the licensing of Google Test.

SLOCCount is an easy-to-use tool that counts Source Lines of Code (SLOC). It auto-determines the language(s) (inc. C, C++, Ada, Assembly, shell, COBOL, C#, Fortran, Haskell, Java, LISP/Scheme, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL). It also estimates cost & time.
