Hello Esri team,

First of all, thank you for the great work on the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript. I use it a lot and truly appreciate the documentation.

I have a small but useful feature request: add a "Copy for LLMs" button to the documentation pages (API reference and guides).

Here are three reasons why this would help:

  1. It would help me build AI-assisted skills.
    I am currently working on LLM-based skills involving ArcGIS JS API code. A clean, one-click way to copy a class or sample in an LLM-friendly format (like Markdown) would save me significant manual cleanup time.

  2. Even a temporary or per-class copy is useful.
    I understand a full solution might take time. But even a small "Copy for LLMs" button next to a single class definition or code sample would already be a big help. Sometimes I just need to copy one example to feed into an LLM for better suggestions.

  3. Many open-source documentation systems already support this.
    This pattern is becoming common. Tools like GitBook, Docusaurus, and many open-source project docs (for example, Sui, Ethereum, and various dev tooling sites) already include a "Copy as Markdown" or "Copy for LLMs" button. It improves developer experience significantly.

Adding this feature would make the ArcGIS Maps SDK even better for modern AI-assisted workflows.

Thank you for considering this.

Best regards,
