• Code Search at Google: The Story of Han-Wen and Zoekt

  The same algorithm is also used in Hound (https://github.com/hound-search/hound You really should check it out if you haven't already. It's incredibly useful; I used it all the time. Not open source though. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• DockerHub replacement stratagy and options

  Agreed, I already have Hound setup to search across all the different repos I pull from (bitbucket, gh, gitlab, gitea etc) but now I need to find a docker equivalent. Source: about 1 year ago

• Gitlab to lay off 7% of staff

  I know you're looking for first-party tools that is part of the whole package, but hound does this fantastically and is extremely easy to setup, and is ridiculously fast. Source: about 1 year ago

• Regular Expression Matching with a Trigram Index

  Hound is an excellent implementation of this for code search: https://github.com/hound-search/hound. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Doctree

  If the docs are generated from comments in the code a simple ripgrep search of the source (with fzf or other integration) will find things just as well too. Hound is a nice little web UI that does this: https://github.com/hound-search/hound. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: How do you search large code-base before adding a feature or fixing bug?

  Especially if this is long term, this is a great tool: https://github.com/hound-search/hound#hound It would be great if someone integrated this with tree-sitter plus something to make the search semantics a bit smarter about usages of X: https://www.etsy.com/codeascraft/announcing-hound-a-lightning-fast-code-search-tool/ Screenshots: https://jaxenter.com/hound-go-react-code-search-engine-150086.html Another trick... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: How do you search large code-base before adding a feature or fixing bug?

  I reach for Hound-search[0] (originally Etsy Houndd) that uses Russ Cox's "Regular Expression Matching with a Trigram Index" I had even made self-serve hosting for it but didn't put much effort into monetizing or otherwise promoting it.

• Ask HN: How do you search large code-base before adding a feature or fixing bug?

  At Oracle (keep in mind every org is very different) I wrote a crappy script to grab all repos in my org and hook them up to Etsy Hound [0]. But I couldn't stick with it long enough for it to be useful. It's surprising to me how much effort is not being put into whole-org code search. Most projects focus solely on single-repo search. If you need to make breaking changes or find examples and you don't even know... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Parcel CSS: A new CSS parser, compiler, and minifier

  Nice too that it's a compiled language, so you get the end tool in a nice static binary. As a non-Node dev, I hate the experience of hacking on some project and having to install a giant pool of NPM stuff just run some minifier or linter. Hound is an example of this— the guts of the project are golang, but it has a frontend that uses webpack, jest, etc: https://github.com/hound-search/hound Which is fine, I guess;... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Grep.app: search across a half million Git repos

  The title does not give this enough credit. I was incredibly impressed by its speed(I'm used to Hound[1] at work) it felt almost instant. [1]: https://github.com/hound-search/hound. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
