Week Four ➙ Iron Yard Tutorial Journal

DOC-block commentary, basic tutorial:

This is an important piece of syntax and planning-structure that I learned this week. It works well in Atom or most other text-editors, is intuitive and easy to type (using a comment and Markdown sort of syntax), and can be used by jsdoc to create some very nice documentation… (an index of @-terms this format will accept are at the previous link, and a simple example is below…)

/**
    * @param {Array} someFunction <explain what this function means, enumerate arguments...>
    * @return { ... }
*/

Installation instructions are here. More information is here.

Personally, as a newbie to JavaScript, I found learning this format not only a best practice that I should get in the habit of doing when appropriate on the job (with particularly complex of important functions, at least), but also quite helpful for planning implementation of User-Stories into functions.
