Hi Derek,

Short :
Currently, it required webapp front-end.

Long (extract from vscaladoc2-genjson/README.md) :

--8<---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What about static html generation ?

Or why not providing a static json -> html tool ?

Because I want :

* to create a "central" place to browse api,
* to ease aggregration/cross project reference (with dynamic update),
it's hard and not evolutive to achieve with static generation
* to allow reader to browse api of severals project with his
"preferences" (not available)

A possible future solution could be to provide a standalone viewer
(local http-webapp) with the abilities :

* to browse a local repository of api-data (json format)
* to sniff/capture remote api

Like this user will be able to browse off-line and to access all the
benefit of the central "repository"

One of the target (I forgot to list) is to simplify )

Note : You could create your own tool, (or pay me to make it) ;-)
