How to use CODEOWNERS Generator

List path patterns and their owners, and the tool formats them into a GitHub CODEOWNERS file, adding the @ prefix to usernames automatically.

Frequently asked questions

Where does GitHub look for this file?

Place it at .github/CODEOWNERS, docs/CODEOWNERS, or the repo root — GitHub checks all three locations and uses the first one it finds.

Can I use this file directly in my repository?

Yes, as a starting point — review names, paths, and details against your actual project before committing.

Does generating this file upload anything to GitHub?

No. Everything is built client-side in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere until you commit it yourself.
