Description

The generated client code has nice documentation comments, but I haven't been able to produce any good output from it. Is there actually a JS api doc generator that produces any good output from these sources? I've tried ESDoc, JSDoc, and YUIDoc, and all came out with essentially empty output. Is there a magic tool/configuration combo that works?

Determine whether a reproducible generator and configuration produces useful output; done would be a documented working approach or a clear explanation of the limitation.
