Anything better than PHPDoc out there?

documentation, documentation-generation, php, phpdoc

Solution

I´ll go for doxygen too.

Here are several reasons :

- compatible with phpdoc tags and other popular ones : it´s interoperable

- works with various programming languages : a better time investment

- there is alternative syntaxes : can choose the commenting style that suit you

- very efficient with advanced formating / tagging / metadata

- there is a GUI that is not linked to any IDE and an eclipse plugin as well

And still free, multiplatform, and open source :-)

It´s easy to learn, but harder that phpdoc because a lot richer.

Problem

Does anybody use anything else to document their `PHP` code than `PHPDoc?` Are there any tools that read the same documentation syntax but give richer output?
