When writing Servoy Developer IDE The Script Editor in the Servoy Developer IDE supports annotating JavaScript code using JSDoc. Documenting the code is a good practise, as it makes it easier to understand the code after a while or if another programmer needs to have a look at it. Within Servoy, there is The JSDoc syntax supported by the Servoy Developer IDE is derived from the [JSDoc Toolkit|http://code.google.com/p/jsdoc-toolkit/] and [Google Closure Compiler's support for JavaScript annotation|http://code.google.com/closure/compiler/docs/js-for-compiler.html], plus some custom Servoy extensions. The JSDoc syntax consists of a set of JSDoc tags. Some of these tags require a Type Expression as one of the parameters.
