DriftGuard: catching when your code quietly breaks your docs
DriftGuard is a tool designed to detect discrepancies between code and documentation in software projects. It helps developers maintain accurate documentation by identifying when changes in the codebase affect existing documentation. The tool is particularly useful for SDK maintainers and Web3 teams to ensure that their documentation remains in sync with their code updates.
- ▪DriftGuard is a CLI and GitHub Action that detects 'drift' between different layers of a project.
- ▪It checks Solidity contracts, TypeScript SDKs, and documentation to ensure consistency.
- ▪The tool runs in CI on every pull request and provides inline annotations for any discrepancies found.
