Documentation should be both technically accurate and contextually helpful for developers. Comments and JSDoc entries must correctly describe the behavior, purpose, and relationships of code elements.
Documentation should be both technically accurate and contextually helpful for developers. Comments and JSDoc entries must correctly describe the behavior, purpose, and relationships of code elements.
Key practices:
Bun.BodyInit
instead of just BodyInit
)Examples:
Instead of vague comments:
// keep this in sync with src/bun.js/bindings/webcore/JSReadableStream.cpp customInspect
// keep this in sync with src/bun.js/bindings/webcore/JSWritableStream.cpp customInspect
Use explanatory comments that convey purpose:
// These must match the order of the stateNames arrays in JSReadableStream.cpp and JSWritableStream.cpp
Instead of imprecise JSDoc:
/**
* Local IP address connected to the socket
* @example "192.168.1.100" | "2001:db8::1"
*/
readonly localFamily: string;
Use technically accurate descriptions:
/**
* IP protocol family used for the local endpoint of the socket
* @example "IPv4" | "IPv6"
*/
readonly localFamily: string;
