Document Your FileMaker Solution

Turn any FileMaker solution into clear, always-current technical documentation with FMDojo Snapshot Documentation. Upload a FileMaker Save as XML file—or use an existing Snapshot—and FMDojo automatically documents your complete solution: tables, fields, calculations, table occurrences, relationships, layouts, scripts, value lists, and custom functions. Explore a visual relationship diagram, browse the full schema in your browser, add an AI-generated plain-language overview, and export everything as a polished PDF or Markdown document. Because the documentation is generated directly from your Snapshot, it reflects the actual FileMaker file instead of relying on stale notes or manually maintained diagrams. Snapshot Documentation helps developers understand inherited systems, onboard teammates, prepare audits, plan migrations, review architecture, and explain complex FileMaker solutions to clients and stakeholders.

FileMaker Code Evaluator

Testing the new FileMaker Calculation Evaluator in FM Dojo. This lets FileMaker developers paste JSON, XML, text, field values, or variables into a context panel, write a FileMaker calculation, and evaluate the result directly in the browser. Unsupported functions and missing context are called out clearly, while supported functions are searchable and grouped by FileMaker-style categories. In this demo, I’m using JSONGetElement, GetAsNumber, Round, Let, and text concatenation to calculate an invoice total from pasted JSON. Try FM Dojo: https://fmdojo.com
