I have the same requirement to generate the docs for custom app.

Generating documentation for a custom app

Dear all, I created a custom app to generate a legal report (FEC) required in France: https://github.com/DOKOS-IO/French-Localization It is also meant to contain additional reports and dedicated functionalities in the future. I would like to generate the documentation as explained at the current link: https://frappe.github.io/frappe/user/en/guides/app-development/generating-docs But when running: bench --site "mysite" make-docs french_localization current the system returns: Usage: benc…

but it seems make-docs and build-docs are all not work now.
So, how to generate the docs for custom app ？

frappe@e8811978c502:~/frappe-bench$ bench --version
5.16.2
frappe@e8811978c502:~/frappe-bench$ bench make-docs erpnextcn current

That feature has been removed (refactor: remove autodocs, no longer used by rmehta · Pull Request #7453 · frappe/frappe · GitHub) due to it no longer being used by Frappe.

Not aware of any alternatives.

thanks for your reply. It’s a pity that this function is no longer available. My usage scenario is that this is a custom APP, so two main information need to be conveyed to users through documents: what functions are there and how to install them.
