    Package Manager Documentation Tools

    The Package Manager Documentation Tools (PMDT) package is a UI extension for the Package Manager that generates documentation for a package. It enables you to preview what the documentation for a package looks like in its final published form, and provides validation reports that check for issues with the documentation.
