# Java Documentation (Javadoc) Best Practices

Stop shipping Java types with no comment explaining them

## What this does

Someone reading your Java code later has to guess what a class or interface is for, because nothing says. This goes through your types and makes sure each one carries a Javadoc comment, written the way Java documentation is supposed to be written. Reach for it before a review, or when a codebase has grown without anyone writing the comments.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Add Javadoc to types that are missing it
- Check my documentation follows good practice
- Clean up comments before a review
