> [v5 is out now](https://scribe.knuckles.wtf/laravel/migrating)!

Scribe helps you generate API documentation for humans from your Laravel codebase. See a live example at [demo.scribe.knuckles.wtf](https://demo.scribe.knuckles.wtf).

## Features

- Useful output:

  - Pretty single-page HTML doc, with human-friendly text, code samples, and in-browser API tester ("Try It Out")

  - Generates Postman collection and OpenAPI spec

- Smarts. Scribe can:

  - extract request parameter details from FormRequests or validation rules

  - safely call API endpoints to get sample responses

  - generate sample responses from Eloquent API Resources or Transformers

- Customisable to different levels:

  - Customise the UI by adjusting text, ordering, examples, or change the UI itself

  - Add custom strategies to adjust how data is extracted

  - Statically define extra endpoints or information that isn't in your codebase

> 👋 Scribe helps you generate docs automatically, but if you really want to make friendly, maintainable and testable API docs, there's some more things you need to know. So I made [a course](https://shalvah.teachable.com/p/api-documentation-for-developers?utm_source=scribe-laravel&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=none) for you.🤗
