Describe the solution you'd like
It would be interesting to have the option to display a generated inheritance diagram with links to the documentation for parent/child classes. This could be a good option for a second Insiders funding tier.
classDiagram
class Parent
link Parent "#module.Parent"
Parent <|-- Child
The mermaid.js classDiagram
is designed for inheritance diagrams like this and even supports linking. I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to parse the inheritance structure and assemble the corresponding diagram syntax, for example:
classDiagram
class Parent
link Parent "#module.Parent"
Parent <|-- Child
The option could be off by default and toggled on specific classes like so:
options:
show_inheritance_diagram: True
