Can the full documentation for ZIM be added to github so it can be scanned and added to Context7 MCP server and used with Vibe Coding tools, like Cursor, Cline, RooCode etc.
I'd love to use my coding assistant tools to write ZIM apps, but AI hallucinates too much when it doesn't have direct access to examples and the latest (by version) of the documentation. Context7 changes that and would make writing ZIM apps with AI assisted coding tools so amazing.
We put a fair number of examples into the ZIM - AI Chat Bot - ZIMjs... perhaps we can make that available. Just added a docs.txt to GitHub GitHub - danzen/zimjs: ZIM JavaScript Canvas Framework - Code Creativity! Interactive Media For All. and it is docs.txt
I think the only issue is that when Context7 scans GitHub repos it looks for .md files. So if the docs were just convert to markdown instead of text, it would work perfectly.
Okay - well, just renamed it md rather than txt. But... it is not markdown and would be a lot to get it there. So see how it goes. We do parse the docs to get it into DOCS - ZIM JavaScript Canvas Framework - Documentation format so possibly could look into it if this does not work.
Thanks. I checked that out but apparently Context7 knew it wasn't markdown when I rescanned the github repo, so it ignored it.
I tried pasting your docs url (DOCS - ZIM JavaScript Canvas Framework - Documentation) into urltomarkdown.com and it did a great job of converting it. Only the Parameters sections weren't really "Human Readable", but that may not matter for Context7 since it's meant for AI tools to use as docs.
Pandoc or Turndown should work in a CLI as well. That would make it easy to get into the github repo and stay current.
So... was the point to get examples for AI to reference or to get an alternative view into the docs? Is there a URL to a sample or what you are doing?
https://context7.com is the site
Watch the first 2 min of this video to explain how and why it's used with AI coding tools. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTZm6fBYisc
It helps keep AI coding tools from hallucinating or using outdated code because the latest docs and examples can be used. It's so helpful

That is interesting how there are tools out there to help with AI hallucinations. I have dabbled with AI tools a little bit but still prefer to do the work myself. I am also going away from charging hourly project time cause I can't compete with the developers that use AI to make the same project in less time.
I did have to redo an app that was originally made by another developer. In some of the comments it had some AI code suggesting stamps. It was a mess to say the least. Can't wait to see the future with "Developer AI Zombie Syndrome".
