Is there a demo to see? Is work still planned on this?

Hi @trusktr. Indeed things have stalled as I've been on an extended sabbatical. Lucky enough to extend it another 9 months. I got hardcore burnt out, but made it to 40 before the implosion. TJSDoc is a hard fork of ESDoc which has stalled as well. Besides later versions of ESDoc succumbed to technical debt and bad decisions IMHO by the solo maintainer who refused to let others help. The final remaining module for TJSDoc is a publishing module. The rest is in well working condition with many enhancements over ESDoc including performance. A killer feature and hardening of the underlying runtime I finished is automatic doc regeneration which opens a browser and new documentation as you type code / docs appears instantly. I just burned out before final completion. I estimate probably 1-2 months full time work max to get things finished. I spent about 8 months full time+ on TJSDoc in '17.

As mentioned though I just decided to spend the next 9 months making an effort to get to the semi-pro / pro level for pool / billiards and won't get full time coding in though I plan to get somethings moving forward. Hopefully next April / May will see me getting back into full swing of things. There are some very cool things TJSDoc will be able to do and we'll see what open source options arise between now and then if any.

Like most open source efforts of any complexity TJSDoc cost me way too much money ~$40k already and there is no / minimal hope of ROI. I figured at least I wouldn't launch things then disappear on a sabbatical with users interested in the effort. So long answer short; yes I plan to get back to TJSDoc though it might still be a while.
