What this tool does

Extract code comments from source code and measure comment words, TODOs, FIXMEs, comment density, and documentation coverage.

Input → parse structure → detect issues → format output → calculate quality score.

The result is designed for practical editing, documentation cleanup, and quick QA before publishing.

Example

Paste rough text such as // TODO: handle empty state. The tool returns a cleaner structure plus metrics and recommendations.

Use cases

  • Developer documentation cleanup
  • Release preparation
  • Markdown and README QA
  • International text inspection
  • Technical writing review

Tips for better output

  • Use clear headings or labels where possible.
  • Separate unrelated sections with blank lines.
  • Keep examples close to the section they explain.
  • Review detected issues before publishing.

Processing details

The tool uses browser-side parsing rules for Markdown, documentation conventions, comments, Unicode scripts, and common formatting patterns.

It is a fast formatting and QA helper, not a compiler, formal linter, or server-side validation system.
