Description

Sandcastle is a software development application for creating technical documentation for .NET Framework and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) applications. It is a part of the Microsoft Visual Studio integrated development environment (IDE). It enables developers to create detailed and comprehensive help files for .NET components, including class libraries, web services, and Windows applications. The help files can be published in a variety of formats, such as HTML Help, Microsoft Help Viewer, and DocX. Sandcastle uses a combination of HTML, XML, XSLT, and C# to generate the help files. It also supports the use of custom plug-ins and templates to generate help files in different formats. Sandcastle also includes tools for documenting web services and Windows applications. The help files that it produces are highly customizable, and can be used for both internal and external development documentation.
