Hi,

I am in the process of finishing the testing for the new version of `TSAnalysis.jl`. I documented most functions and types via docstrings, and I was wondering whether there is a way to automatically convert docstrings into a wiki documentation. This would be particularly helpful to quickly build a first draft.

Are you aware of any way / package that is able to perform a similar conversion?

Thank you.

[https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl) is the de facto standard tool to build docs (doesn’t build a wiki though).
