If you’re using open-source software, one of the most common problems is outdated or poor documentation.
Why? Most contributors enjoy coding, not updating documentation.
The only source of truth for the software is in the code itself, forcing you to go through the implementation—which defeats the purpose of using open-source software: saving time.
Enter DeepWiki.
DeepWiki is a free, AI-powered tool launched by Devin AI that automatically generates wiki-style documentation for any GitHub repository. It supports public repos out of the box (no sign-up required) and private ones if you authenticate.
The cool part? You can ask it any question about the project, just like how you’d interact with an AI coding agent.
See the screenshots below to see how I could easily find the steps to perform certain actions in Chatwoot and Mautic.
Isn’t this cool? What’s your favorite open-source software?
