phpManta is a suite of PHP classes, scripts and examples intended to help PHP programmers writing stable PHP websites and applications. Coding is faster using auto-documentation, templates and web widgets from the phpManta suite.

With phpManta suite, you can easily auto-document your own PHP code.

Mdoc is a new auto-documentation tool to create manuals like PHP manual at php.net web site, so in a style common to the PHP community and is very efficient to share your code as APIs.

Mdoc parses the PHP source code and its comments to build the manual for a class or a library. A class is a valid PHP4 or PHP5 class, a library is a file of functions, both may contains constant declarations.

Documentation may then be displayed formated in native or custom (X)HTML code which can be included in web pages. Native format style is mostly inspired from PHP manual at php.net web site.

Custom format is built thanks to a powerful template feature and can be in any structured language such like XML (assuming the template smart display flag is set to "off" to disable the XHTML smart display feature).
