Verlauf
Projektgeschichte und Nutzung
FORD is an automatic documentation generator for modern Fortran programs. The README expands the name as FORtran Documenter and frames the project as a Fortran-oriented alternative to Doxygen and other documentation generators.
Projektgeschichte
FORD was written because the maintainer found Doxygen's Fortran handling poor and other alternatives limited, proprietary, unattractive, or difficult to extend. The README specifically compares it with ROBODoc, f90doc, and Doxygen and states the goal of producing modern Fortran documentation that is informative, attractive, easy to write, and non-obtrusive.
The documentation site later formalized the user guide around project files, Markdown metadata, fpm.toml integration, command-line options, generated pages, and API documentation. The changelog shows an active 6.x and 7.x period, including Sphinx/Read the Docs documentation work and a v7.0.0 breaking-change release.
Adoptionsgeschichte
The README documents pip as the simplest installation path, Homebrew as a macOS package-manager route, and additional system package availability. It also displays badges for PyPI, Homebrew, package status, downloads, GitHub license, and Zenodo, indicating packaging and citation concerns common in scientific Fortran projects.
Wie es verwendet wird
Users write a Markdown project file, optionally put settings in fpm.toml, and run ford against the project file. FORD extracts documentation from Fortran comments, supports Markdown, MathJax, search, Bootstrap-based output, source links, static pages, and external project references.
Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren
FORD matters to package and scientific-computing maintainers because it fills a language-specific documentation gap for modern Fortran while fitting normal Python packaging and Homebrew workflows. It also bridges Fortran Package Manager projects through fpm.toml support.
Zeitleiste
- 2022: changelog entry v6.1.17 includes adding Sphinx docs and a Read the Docs website.
