    Hey there HN,

    I'm Jieren, and I'm building this app here.

    I submitted this two months ago and I wanted to share again as there's been some significant progress. Instead of a fairly janky interface where you're clicking and dragging things around, now it's just a text editor where you type in code and you get search results that mirror this code.

    All this is driving towards a vision of a "no-code" [0] builder for static analysis and making static analysis as easy as code search.

    Looking forward to your feedback!
