What is CodeViz?
CodeViz is designed to enhance codebase understanding for developers. Upon first load, it automatically generates a comprehensive map of the codebase. Users can interact with this map by asking questions in plain English or clicking to navigate directly to relevant code sections, streamlining the process of exploring complex code structures.
The tool offers multi-level visualization capabilities, allowing exploration from high-level system architecture down to specific function calls. This feature facilitates a deeper comprehension of how different parts of the codebase interact, ultimately helping development teams ship features more efficiently by reducing the time spent deciphering existing code.
