Help everyone understand complex systems using lightweight and interactive visuals. IcePanel helps technical and non-technical people model their software architecture in a simple and structured way using the C4 model. Create diagrams at different levels of detail, from high-level to low-level, that connect to your code. Tell dynamic stories about your architecture using Flows and Tags to help onboard new team members, or evaluate key user journeys.

For the architectural documentation like this one, the C4 Model [0] is a much better fit than UML - primarily because it's less rigid in notation and modeling components. And in terms of tooling, I find IcePanel [1] to have the right combination of flexibility and simplicity. [0] https://c4model.com/ [1] https://icepanel.io/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

I use UML quite a bit but it's never really what I'm after, somnething more modern and fluid and gui driven that more people can use. Icepanel [1] looks really cool but I haven't tested it and I'm not sure it really fits my use case. It seems like it's mostly for api driven rpc/grpc/rest services when I kind of want to use it to visualize backend/infra/terraform sort of things. Might be interesting to you.

1. We started using https://icepanel.io/ for microservices, Software, anything thats documentable for later read. 2. More diagrams, less key strokes 3. We have dedicated page owners on confluence, its mix of engineers, leaders, PM's, QA etc. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Been working on https://searchcode.com/ again which I bought back, albeit as code search tool for LLMs. It solves the โshould I use this libraryโ by allowing the LLM to inspect search and analyse it before integration. Can use it to compare multiple repositories before downloading. It comes with a large amount of token savings and can be really useful when wanting to learn about a codebase. Since it does it anyway... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
I reimagined https://searchcode.com/ since I realised LLMs have issues when it comes to understanding code you want to integrate. Itโs useful for looking though any codebase, or multiple without having to clone it. I use it when I have candidate libraries to solve a problem, or I just want to find out how things work. Most recently I pointed it at fzf and was able to pull the insensitive SIMD matching it uses and... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
Searchcode doesn't seem to work for me. All queries (even the ones recommended by the site) unfortunately return zero results. Maybe it got hugged? https://searchcode.com/?q=re.compile+lang%3Apython. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
Without saying what repos they prioritize, it's hard to take them seriously since some pretty simple searches were "uh-huh" e.g. https://searchcode.com/?q=kubelet&src=2&lan=55 versus https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=kubelet&literal=1 or the gold standard (although regrettably no longer open source) https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+kubelet&patternType=keyword&sm=0. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
