How do I document my Go package effectively?

How do I document my Go package effectively?

To document your Go package effectively, use comments to describe your functions, types, and packages. Start with a package comment that explains what the package does.

What format should I use for the comments?

Use full sentences and start with the name of the function or type. For example, "Add sums two integers and returns the result." This helps in generating documentation.

Can I include examples in the documentation?

Yes, including examples is a great idea! You can use the Example function to show how to use your package in practice.

How do I generate the documentation from my comments?

You can use the go doc command to generate documentation from your comments. It will read your comments and format them nicely.
