Summary

This PR adds comprehensive swift-docc documentation to OpenAttributeGraph, including a detailed architecture guide and complete API documentation following OpenSwiftUI conventions.

Changes Made

📚 README Architecture Section

  • Added comprehensive architecture explanation covering Attribute, Graph, and Runtime components
  • Detailed descriptions of each component's purpose and functionality
  • Reference to wickwirew/Runtime for Swift runtime techniques

📖 Swift-DocC Documentation Catalog

  • Main Module Documentation: OpenAttributeGraph.md with organized topic structure
  • Architecture Guide: Architecture.md with in-depth system design explanation
  • Core Components: CoreComponents.md covering fundamental APIs
  • Advanced Topics: AdvancedTopics.md for specialized functionality

🔧 API Documentation

Added comprehensive swift-docc documentation for key public APIs:

  • Attribute<Value> struct with property wrapper usage examples
  • Rule protocol for computed attributes with dependency tracking
  • Metadata extensions for runtime type introspection
  • Complete code examples using indented format (matching OpenSwiftUI style)

📝 Documentation Structure

OpenAttributeGraph.docc/
├── OpenAttributeGraph.md (main module doc)
├── Architecture.md (system architecture)  
├── CoreComponents.md (fundamental APIs)
└── AdvancedTopics.md (advanced features)

🎨 Formatting & Standards

  • All code examples use indented format (4 spaces) instead of markdown fences
  • Follows OpenSwiftUI documentation patterns and conventions
  • Clean topic organization without nested subheadings
  • Proper swift-docc link references and symbol documentation

Architecture Coverage

The documentation thoroughly covers OpenAttributeGraph's architecture:

Attribute System: Reactive property wrappers with automatic dependency tracking, type erasure, rule-based transformations, and efficient value computation.

Graph Management: Dependency network coordination, update orchestration, invalidation tracking, batch processing, and scoped computation contexts.

Runtime Support: Swift runtime type introspection, memory layout manipulation, efficient value comparison, and pointer arithmetic for nested access.

Code Examples

All documentation includes practical code examples:

  • Property wrapper usage patterns
  • Rule-based computed attributes
  • Runtime type introspection
  • Dynamic member lookup
  • Integration with larger systems

Benefits

  • Better Developer Experience: Clear, comprehensive documentation for all public APIs
  • Architectural Understanding: In-depth guide to system design and component interaction
  • Consistency: Follows established OpenSwiftUI documentation patterns
  • Discoverability: Well-organized topic structure for easy navigation
  • Swift-DocC Integration: Full compatibility with Xcode documentation browser

Testing

  • ✅ Swift-DocC warnings resolved
  • ✅ All article references working correctly
  • ✅ Code examples properly formatted
  • ✅ Documentation builds successfully
  • ✅ Follows OpenSwiftUI conventions

Ready for review and integration into the main branch.

@Kyle-Ye Kyle-Ye force-pushed the feature/documentation-improvements branch from affba07 to 7986436 Compare September 6, 2025 12:10
- Create dedicated extension files for major APIs:
  * Attribute.md - Comprehensive property wrapper documentation
  * Rule.md - Computed attribute protocol documentation
  * Metadata.md - Runtime type introspection documentation
- Simplify source code documentation to brief summaries
- Move detailed examples and usage patterns to extension files
- Follow OpenSwiftUI documentation organization patterns
- Improve documentation discoverability with Topics sections
Extension files created:
- StatefulRule.md - Stateful computed attributes with mutable state
- WeakAttribute.md - Weak reference attributes preventing retain cycles
- Graph.md - Central dependency coordinator and update management
- Subgraph.md - Scoped computation contexts for isolation
- RuleContext.md - Rule evaluation context and input access
- Focus.md - KeyPath-based property focusing rules

Source documentation added:
- StatefulRule.swift - Brief protocol description
- WeakAttribute.swift - Weak reference property wrapper docs
- OptionalAttribute.swift - Optional attribute wrapper docs
- Focus.swift - KeyPath focusing rule docs
- RuleContext.swift - Evaluation context docs
- CompareValues.swift - Value comparison function docs

All APIs now have proper DocC documentation following OpenSwiftUI patterns
- Create directory structure matching Sources layout:
  * Attribute/Attribute/ - Core attribute types
  * Attribute/Rule/ - Rule-based computed attributes
  * Attribute/Weak/ - Weak reference attributes
  * Attribute/Optional/ - Optional attribute wrappers
  * Attribute/RuleContext/ - Rule evaluation contexts
  * Graph/ - Graph management types
  * Runtime/ - Runtime introspection utilities

- Move extension files to proper locations:
  * Attribute.md -> Attribute/Attribute/Attribute.md
  * Rule.md -> Attribute/Rule/Rule.md
  * StatefulRule.md -> Attribute/Rule/StatefulRule.md
  * Focus.md -> Attribute/Rule/Focus.md
  * WeakAttribute.md -> Attribute/Weak/WeakAttribute.md
  * RuleContext.md -> Attribute/RuleContext/RuleContext.md
  * Graph.md -> Graph/Graph.md
  * Subgraph.md -> Graph/Subgraph.md
  * Metadata.md -> Runtime/Metadata.md

- Add OptionalAttribute.md documentation

This organization improves documentation discoverability and maintains
consistency with the source code structure.
- Move overview, examples, and usage patterns from DocC extension files to Swift source files
- Keep only Topics sections in extension files for API organization
- Updated source files with comprehensive documentation:
  * Attribute.swift - Full property wrapper documentation with examples
  * Rule.swift - Complete protocol documentation with usage patterns
  * StatefulRule.swift - Detailed stateful rule documentation
  * WeakAttribute.swift - Comprehensive weak reference documentation
  * Focus.swift - Complete KeyPath-based focusing documentation

- Simplified extension files to contain only Topics sections:
  * Attribute.md - Topics organization only
  * Rule.md - Topics organization only
  * StatefulRule.md - Topics organization only
  * WeakAttribute.md - Topics organization only
  * Focus.md - Topics organization only

This provides comprehensive in-source documentation while maintaining
clean Topics-based API organization in extension files.
