RDoc.info is a web service that generates and hosts documentation for your favorite GitHub-hosted Ruby libraries and Rails plugins. Just add a post-commit hook to your project and it’ll take care of updating your API docs every time you push to the remote.
What, not cool enough for your hipster threads? Well it also masquerades as the docs user on GitHub, and auto-publishes your docs directly to GitHub Pages using a familiar theme.
