# smart_doc

A text validator to make sure your docs are in simple technical English.

This library does not implement The AeroSpace and Defense Industries' "Simplified Technical English,"
but it is inspired by it, and tries to apply its philosophy to software documentation.

## Installation

If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `smart_doc` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:smart_doc, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end
```

Documentation can be generated with [ExDoc](https://github.com/elixir-lang/ex_doc)
and published on [HexDocs](https://hexdocs.pm). Once published, the docs can
be found at [https://hexdocs.pm/smart_doc](https://hexdocs.pm/smart_doc).

## Usage

Use the `mix` task:

```sh
mix smartdoc myfile.md
```

## Maintainer

This project was developed by [Rosa Richter](https://github.com/Cantido).

## Contributing

Questions and pull requests are more than welcome.
I follow Elixir's tenet of bad documentation being a bug,
so if anything is unclear, please [file an issue](https://github.com/Cantido/smart_doc/issues/new)!
Ideally, my answer to your question will be in an update to the docs.
