"javadoc" in C#

Question

I have been looking online to find out how to "javadoc" in C# console application. All the articles refer to a webform of C# in the case for that, /// would be the javadoc. What is the way to do it if you are making a console application in visual studio?

Edit: I remember it had to deal with a @ before the method

Put three forward-slashes and you'll see VS autogenerating the rest for you. — It'sNotALie., Jun 10 '13 at 14:27
[Jetbrains Rider](https://www.jetbrains.com/rider/) also autogenerates this after putting three forward-slashes. — Wim Deblauwe, Sep 21 '18 at 08:22

Three forward slashes begins the doc:

/// <summary>
/// My method does stuff.
/// </summary>
public void MyMethod() { ... }

Then, you can modify the project properties to output XML files that contain the documentation for other developers, or use an application like SandCastle to generate full-fledged documentation web pages.
