As most of you know, developing large projects can get rather chaotic. Sometimes you can get lost in the number of methods, objects, and bugs you need to keep track of.
I was faced with this exact issue, especially when taking breaks and coming back to programming. This would slow down my development, because I would have to find the method in my code and relearn its purpose.
This got me thinking. What if there was a plugin where you could document your codebase, as well as jot down notes and report bugs?
Introducing Docublox!
Docublox is a plugin for Roblox Studio that allows you to:
Document Global Methods/Class Methods so you can recall their parameters or use case
Write down notes without leaving studio. Great for jotting ideas.
Document bugs as you find them.
Docublox will save this information, allowing you to access it right when studio loads!
Here is the current UI for Docublox.
Docublox is still in development, but it will hopefully be released soon. I’d love to hear your feedback and what you want to see in the final release.
Thanks for reading
Plans for the future:
I plan to add a feature to sort by original note place. If the note was created in PlaceA, you could sort notes by PlaceA and hide PlaceB notes.
Also, forgive me if there are grammatical issues. I’m writing this at 4 A.M. lol.
Would it be possible for it to automatically document modules that use oop? Or maybe make it save into the module so they only have to select it, when they’d like to read it?
bro. thank GOD you did this! I have been needing this for so much time now! I am always writing things down on sticky notes and Notepad, and that can get very annoying.
I love the UI. It is perfect.
Is text in the UI able to be highlighted and copied? If not, you should probably look into that. Copy and paste is something that a lot of developers rely on and if you support it, it will definitely get some downloads!
Thank you! I’m glad your exited! The text in the UI Is able to be copied by selecting, so you can easily copy and paste. Edit features will be coming to notes as well, so you can change a note as needed!
