Why Use Code Comments?
Code comments are essential for keeping a clean and well-documented codebase.
They provide context, allowing reviewers to focus on functionality while making complex logic clear, ensuring the code is easier to follow and maintain.
Good documentation improves code readability and speeds up onboarding for newcomers to the codebase. This dual benefit supports both current and future development, creating a strong foundation for upgrades and changes.
That's what makes this feature so valuable. Need a few hundred lines of code documented? No problem—just use Add Code Comments.
