Jazzy is a Ruby-based command-line tool that generates API documentation for Swift and Objective-C projects. It uses Clang and SourceKit AST representations to produce documentation styled like Apple's official reference docs.

Use cases

• generate documentation for a swift framework
• create apple-style api reference docs for objective-c
• document a swift package manager module
• generate docs from a compiled swift module symbol graph
• document multiple modules in one project
• produce html documentation from xcode project source comments

When to choose

• you maintain a Swift or Objective-C library and want polished HTML reference docs
• you want docs that match Apple's official documentation look and feel
• your project builds with Xcode or Swift Package Manager on macOS

When to avoid

• you need documentation for languages other than Swift or Objective-C
• your CI runs on Linux and you can't work around jazzy's macOS-first design
• you prefer Swift-DocC for modern Swift projects
