Show HN: A new AI Based tool that will help developers understand new codebase

by prash2488 on 4/30/24, 3:20 PM with 1 comments

Introducing a new CLI tool called SourceSailor. The tool helps the fellow coders to understand what's in there in a new codebase. And can create a compelling report from that. Currently working only with OpenAI, but planning to add Claude and Gemini 1.5 soon. To try out. CLI From NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sourcesailor?activeTab=readme Source Code: https://github.com/PrashamTrivedi/SourceSailor-CLI And (a very lengthy) blogpost explaining the process behind the CLI: https://prashamhtrivedi.in/introducing_sourcesailor.html

Please try out the tool and tell me what do you think about it....

    I found your idea very interesting. Does it work like a plugin that I could download for my VS Code?
