+# Rustdoc JS
+
+These JavaScript files are incorporated into the rustdoc binary at build time,
+and are minified and written to the filesystem as part of the doc build process.
+
+We use the [Closure Compiler](https://github.com/google/closure-compiler/wiki/Annotating-JavaScript-for-the-Closure-Compiler)
+dialect of JSDoc to comment our code and annotate params and return types.
+To run a check:
+
+ ./x.py doc library/std
+ npm i -g google-closure-compiler
+ google-closure-compiler -W VERBOSE \
+ build/<YOUR PLATFORM>/doc/{search-index*.js,crates*.js} \
+ src/librustdoc/html/static/js/{search.js,main.js,storage.js} \
+ --externs src/librustdoc/html/static/js/externs.js >/dev/null
