Code Documentation #25

Open ErikNixdorf opened 1 year ago

ErikNixdorf commented 1 year ago

Until now, documentation is very poor. Some issues need to be discussed, e.g a github.io page On the other hand we want to publish the code, which is somehow also a documentation

Just for the beginning I drop the talk I gave at BGR at the beginning of February

I think this covers two aspects - Internal documentation i.e. code documentation and public documentation.

For internal documentation I would suggest as first steps:

1) Update the README.txt with minimal explanations how to use this program. This will be also useful for collaborators.

2) Code documentation. Before setting up a public doc, #10 should be addressed for internal development. This is crucial for potential refactoring of the code.

Forms of public documentation could be discussed later evolving from there. I guess a lot of things can change until release/publication, so this should not be done to soon.

The methodological and scientifical aspects will be covered by the the publication of an article I assume. The module documentation should cover especially the technical aspects, such as input data requirement, preprocessing, parameter explanation etc.
