+# Doxydown - documentation utility
+
+## Introduction
+
+Doxydown is an utility to convert `doxygen`-like comments from the source code to markdown.
+Unlike other documentation systems, `doxydown` is specifically designed to generate markdown output only.
+At the moment, doxydown can work with C and lua comments and produce kramdown/pandoc or github
+flavoured markdown. Doxydown produces output with anchors, links and table of content.
+It also can highlight syntax for examples in the documentation.
+
+### Why markdown
+
+Markdown is used by many contemporary engines and can be rendered to HTML using
+advanced templates, styles and scripts. Markdown provides excellent formatting
+capabilities while it doesn't require authors to be web designers to create
+documentation. Markdown is rendered by [`github`](https://github.com) and
+doxydown can generate documentation easily viewed directly inside github. Moreover,
+doxydown supports pandoc style of markdown and that means that markdown output
+can be converted to all formats supported by pandoc (html, pdf, latex,
+man pages and many others).
+
+### Why not `other documentation generator`
+
+Doxydown is extremely simple as it can output markdown only but it is very
+convenient tool to generate nice markdown with all features required from the
+documentation system. Doxydown uses input format that is very close to `doxygen`
+that allows to re-use the existing documentation comments. Currenly, doxydown
+does not support many features but they could be easily added on demand.
+
+## Input format
+
+Doxydown extracts documentation from the comments blocks. The start of block is indicated by
+
+ /***
+
+in `C` or by
+
+ --[[[
+
+in `lua`. The end of documentation block is the normal multiline comment ending
+specific for the input language. Doxydown also strips an initial comment character,
+therefore the following inputs are equal:
+
+~~~c
+/***
+ * some text
+ * other text
+ *
+ */
+~~~
+and
+
+~~~c
+/***
+some text
+other text
+
+*/
+~~~
+
+Note that doxydown preserves empty lines and all markdown elements.
+
+### Documentation blocks
+
+Each documentation block describes either module or function/method. Modules are
+logical compounds of functions and methods. The difference between method and
+function is significant for languages with methods support (e.g. by `lua` via
+metatables). To define method or function you can use the following:
+
+ /***
+ @function my_awesome_function(param1[, param2])
+ This function is awesome.
+ */
+
+All text met in the current documentation block is used as function or method description.
+You can also define parameters and return values for functions and methods:
+
+ @param {type} param1 mandatory param
+
+Here, `{type}` is optional type description for a parameter, `param1` is parameter's name
+and the rest of the string is parameter description. Currently, you cannot split
+parameter description by newline character. In future versions of doxydown this might
+be fixed.
+
+You can specify return type of your function by using of `@return` tag:
+
+ @return {type} some cool result
+
+This tag is similar to `@param` and has the same limitation regarding newlines.
+You can also add some example code by using of `@example` tag:
+
+ @example
+ my_awesome_function('hello'); // returns 42
+
+All text after `@example` tag and until documentation block end is used as an example
+and is highlighted in markdown. Also you can switch the language of example by using
+the extended `@example` tag:
+
+ @example lua
+
+In this example, the code will be highlighted as `lua` code.
+
+Modules descriptions uses the same conventions, but `@param` and `@return` are
+meaningless for the modules. Function and methods blocks that follows some `@module`
+block are automatically attached to that module.
+
+Both modules and function can use links to other functions and methods by using of
+`@see` tag:
+
+ @see my_awesome_function
+
+This inserts a hyperlink to the specified function definition to the markdown.
+
+## Output format
+
+Doxydown can generate github flavoured markdown and pandoc/kramdown compatible
+markdown. The main difference is in how anchors are organized. In kramdown and
+pandoc it is possible to specify an explicit id for each header, whilst in
+GH flavoured markdown we can use only implicit anchors.
+
+### Examples
+
+You can see an example of github flavoured markdown render at
+[libucl github page](https://github.com/vstakhov/libucl/blob/master/doc/lua_api.md).
+The same page bu rendered by kramdown engine in `jekyll` platform can be
+accessed by [this address](https://rspamd.com/doc/lua/ucl.html).
+
+## Program invocation
+
+ doxydown [-hg] [-l language] < input_source > markdown.md
+
+* `-h`: help message
+* `-e`: sets default example language (default: lua)
+* `-l`: sets input language (default: c)
+* `-g`: use github flavoured markdown (default: kramdown/pandoc)
