How do I add my own help pages to the in-built Wolfram documentation ?

    $\begingroup$ I haven't written documentation myself, but I have been looking into it for some time. It seems to me that the consensus is that the easiest path by far would be to use Wolfram Workbench if you have access to it. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Thanks, getting JLink errors in Workbench. Seems far too messy to accomplish anything using Workbench - may simply keep code snippets etc in "CodeBox" or similar. Thanks again for suggestions. $\endgroup$ Jun 17, 2015 at 14:22

    $\begingroup$ Do you need documentation for your package or you want to be able to add a custom page (e.g. guide) to the do docs? It would be nice to be able to achieve the latter. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I am able to add documentation for my own functions using the Workbench - no JLink errors. $\endgroup$ Jun 17, 2015 at 18:18

Possible in Wolfram Workbench: http://www.wolfram.com/products/workbench/features/author.html

Use the ApplicationMaker package.
