Python API Documentation Revamp for Brightway LLC

The goal of this project was to revamp the API documentation for Brightway, an open-source LCA software framework, by updating Python docstrings to the NumPy Docstring standard. Using AutoAPI, the updated docstrings were automatically rendered into the documentation framework. Sphinx was used to manage the entire documentation, from docstring extraction to the final publication of HTML pages. This effort made the documentation more user-friendly. Technologies used - Python, NumPy, AutoAPI, Sphinx, GitHub, and MyST Parser. Reference -https://docs.brightway.dev/en/latest/api/index.html
