💖 NAME 💖

okay so erl_docgen — it's the erl_docgen application, and bestie, its whole entire job is producing the OTP documentation. that's it. that's the girl. no cap. 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the application is made up of a few different parts, and honestly each one is doing its own little thing. let's go through them one by one, because they ALL matter: 🫶

• XSL — a bunch of XSL files that get used to transform the xml files into html, pdf... wait no, into html, pdf or man pages. 💅 (a number of them. plural. many files. slay.)
• DTDs — the DTDs that are used for the OTP documentation. iconic, foundational, lowkey the backbone of the whole operation. 🌸
• escripts — some scripts that are used to produce xml files according to OTP DTDs, and they take some different input to do it. it's giving ✨transformation✨.
• misc — the Erlang logo, javascripts and css stylesheets that are used in the documentation. the aesthetics department fr fr. 🎀

and that's the whole vibe! every single piece accounted for, nothing skipped, we don't do that here. 💖
