Before you begin, you need to have Doxygen installed on your system. Doxygen is a tool that generates documentation from annotated source code. If you don't have Doxygen installed, you can download it from the official Doxygen website or install it using a package manager on your operating system.
For example, on Ubuntu, you can install Doxygen using the following command:
sudo apt-get install doxygen
Once you have doxygen
installed and set-up, you can build the documentation by first moving to this directory by opening a terminal and running
cd PATH_TO_REPO/docs/
Then, using doxygen
you can build the documentation by running
doxygen Doxyfile
Once you run the above command, you will see a folder called html
appear in your CWD. To view the documentation using a browser (shown below is an example using firefox), run
firefox html/index.html
You can also view the documentation by going into the html
folder and finding the index.html
file and double-clicking on it.
