从不使用Visual Studio的代码内XML文档生成C＃文档输出？

Question

Without building the project is it possible to just scan the code and get the triple slash in-code document and output them? (XML, Markdown, etc.)

/// <summary>
/// Resume playing of a previously paused audio with fade in length
/// specified by an argument.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="fadeLengthSeconds">Fade out length to use.</param>
public void ResumeFade(float fadeLengthSeconds)
{

Currently I am using Visual Studio Code and it seems to know about all my documentation in the Intellisense. I have .sln file which seems to link to the assembly containing all the information. If VSCode can read it, I guess there might be other program that is not the full Visual Studio that can generate a doc output from it. (Be it XML or Markdown)

I would like to automatically generate an input for Slate

In the end I use Visual Studio Community just for getting the XML then use :

https://github.com/Pxtl/XmlCommentMarkDownGenerator

It is a NuGet package, but works as a CLI tool. Works on macOS with mono so you could execute an exe file in macOS.

mono PxtlCa.XmlCommentMarkDownGenerator.exe -i ../../Temp/bin/Debug/Assembly-CSharp.xml -o docs.md
