TSDoc Reference
@packageDocumentation

The @packageDocumentation tag is used to mark a comment as referring to a file rather than the declaration following it. The TypeDoc specific @module tag can be used for the same purpose when semantically clearer.

NOTE: A comment block where the @packageDocumentation tag is used must be the first comment in the file. Therefore, it is recommended to place it at the top of the file before any import statements.

Example

// file1.ts
/**
* This is the doc comment for file1.ts
*
* @packageDocumentation
*/

import * as lib from "lib";

// file2.ts
/**
* This is *not* a doc comment for the file, it is a doc comment for the import.
* Include the `@module` or `@packageDocumentation` tag to mark it as a file comment.
*/

import * as lib from "lib";
