## What it is
SpectaQL is a Node.js library and CLI that autogenerates static GraphQL API documentation from a live endpoint's introspection query, an introspection result file, or SDL schema files. It produces a customizable, modern 3-column documentation site that stays complete and up to date with minimal effort.

## Use cases
- generate static documentation for a GraphQL API
- autogenerate API reference docs from a GraphQL schema
- build GraphQL docs from SDL files
- create API reference from introspection query result
- keep GraphQL documentation always up to date
- publish branded GraphQL API docs as a static site

## When to choose
- you have a GraphQL schema and want complete, auto-generated reference docs
- you want static documentation that can be hosted anywhere
- you need customizable, on-brand API documentation without hand-writing it

## When to avoid
- you need documentation for REST or other non-GraphQL APIs
- you want interactive, runnable API docs rather than static pages
- your project is not in the Node.js ecosystem

## Facets
- artifact type: library

- domain: documentation, apis, web-development, developer-tools
