Description

We need to integrate Sphinx into the project to automatically generate documentation from docstrings and maintain an up-to-date developer guide.

Requirements

  • Install and configure Sphinx for Django project documentation.
  • Ensure compatibility with Google-style docstrings using the sphinx.ext.napoleon extension.
  • Generate initial documentation (HTML output).
  • Update README.md with clear instructions for:
    • Generating documentation
    • Rebuilding documentation after code changes
  • Fix all existing docstring formatting issues to ensure Sphinx builds without warnings or errors.
  • Ensure that .gitignore includes documentation files generated by Sphinx

Technical details

  • /docs directory with Sphinx configuration.
  • Include Sphinx extensions:
    • sphinx.ext.autodoc
    • sphinx.ext.napoleon
    • sphinx.ext.viewcode
  • Make sure documentation includes:
    • Models
    • Views
  • Consider adding make html or sphinx-build command examples to README.

Definition of Done

  • docs/ directory created and Sphinx configured.
  • Documentation successfully builds without warnings.
  • README updated with generation instructions.
  • Existing code docstrings are verified and properly formatted.
