Products that do what AdrenalineAI – Interactive System Diagrams for Any Repo does
Hi, Malik from Adrenaline here! We built a system to auto generate interactive system diagrams to help document and understand any codebase (useadrenaline.com). Diagrams are often the most useful medium of communicating how code works. But creating diagrams suffers from the same problem as documentation - it’s a pain to set up, and then quickly becomes out of date. The idea of using diagrams to explain code has been around for a while, but tools to auto-generate these visuals purely from static analysis are often way too busy. So we built Adrenaline - it uses a mix of static analysis to…

I'm enthralled with using pen plotters to make generative art. Last August at SIGGRAPH, I built an interactive experience for others to see how code can be used to make visual art. The linked blog post is my trials and tribulations of linking a MIDI controller to one of these algorithms and sending its output to a plotter, so that people may witness the end-to-end experience.

I was frustated by having to draw system design diagrams by hand when discussing it with my team mates or in an interview. So I thought "Wouldn't it be great if someone draws it for me, while I think out loud?". That is when I came up with VoiceDraw. You can just think out loud or discuss your system architecture with a friend/interviewer, the diagrams are automatically drawn along with your reasoning, open questions and tradeoffs beautifully written on to the side.

I've been exploring the (not so=) amazing potential of AI in coding and have compiled a list of tools. From AI-powered IDEs to code generators, this resource is my contribution to the community. I'm still on the fence about including txt2sql projects, as their functionality seems too basic to me. And I'm personally maintaining this, so your feedback is wellcome.

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

I built Noodles to help me keep up with the codebases my AI tools generate. Open sourced last week, hit 400 stars in 8 days. The problem: AI assistants scaffold entire features quickly, but leave you maintaining code you didn't write. When bugs appear, you're reverse-engineering your own project. Noodles generates interactive D2 diagrams showing execution flow: - Scans the repository and identifies entry points (CLI commands, routes, UI components) - Maps how execution flows from entry to outcome - Renders interactive overlays with clickable nodes and tooltips - Updates incrementally when…

Hi everyone! I built Composer, which is a tool turns your ideas into architecture diagrams. You can also use MCP to turn your EXISTING codebase into a visual diagram! It connects to all possible tools using MCP (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, etc.) The goal was to make system design easier and to be able to draw out what I wanted to make before I started / to explain to others. Its currently live at usecomposer.com and free! I’d love feedback on whether it feels useful for real projects and where it breaks down. :) Thank you

Hi all, I'm Ivan, and together with Alex, we're building a diagram visualization tool for codebases. Alex and I are devs, and we've noticed that recently we've been super productive at writing code (prompting :D). But when it comes to understanding big systems, prompting doesn't work that well — for that, diagrams are best imo. Most tools out there don't scale to big projects (e.g. PyTorch), so we're building CodeBoarding — a recursive visualizer for codebases. It starts from the highest level of abstractions and lets you dive deeper. We use static analysis and LLM agents. The control-flow…

Hey Everybody, We are really excited to release the 1st version of H2LooP studio today.https://h2loop.ai/ H2LooP Studio helps system software engineers generate code from technical specs, debug issues, and understand complex code in C, C++, Go, and Rust. Under the hood, it uses the H2LooP Data Engine to create instruction-tuned datasets from data sheets and source code. Models are what they eat. We create high-quality, pre-vetted domain-specific training data (telecom, IoT, automotive, consumer electronics) at scale for fine-tuning small language models. We leverage both LLMs…

Hey there HN! We're Vivek and Si-Yan from Cartograph (https://cartograph.app). We've built an AI-powered code documentation platform that automatically generates reference documentation and creates a visual interactive map of the codebase that serves as both high level architecture diagram and allows you to zoom in to specific implementations. How it works: We use static analysis to read a codebase and get its symbols and their dependencies, creating a complete map that includes function calls. We use LLMs (Gemini + Claude) to add metadata to this map, as well as augment it in…

Was so sick of reading walls of codex/claude prose, in markdown plans and just in the chat, that I started playing with ideas that force coding agents to display information differently. The human visual cortex is an amazing thing, and getting coding agents to let me use it has been pretty nice so far. Been iterating on this a lot internally for the last few months, polishing and mostly removing stuff.

I'm an "ideas person" who messes around with AI on a low budget. I got tired of watching my tokens vanish and context windows filling up while agents fumbled around trying to find the right thing. Agents don't flail like they used to with shell tools, but there are still weak/blind spots and back-and-forth episodes — especially when using tools in combination/sequence. So I built "tilth" today. Or rather, AI built it — every line is Opus 4.6. I spent a lot of my precious tokens getting it to "not shit" (at least several of the different vendors' AI overlords assure me it's not…

Hi there! I'm building Diagrammatic, a simple and free online tool with the ambition to become a community for diagrams-as-code enthusiasts. Currently, it supports Mermaid, PlantUML, Dot (Graphviz), Vega-Lite, and Typogram, but I'm looking to add more languages. Please let me know if there's a particular one you use. I'd appreciate any kind of constructive feedback as well. Thanks in advance!
