What it does

Tired of feeling lost in huge codebases? AST Visualizer gives you a deterministic bird’s eye view of your code. Our dependency graph shows which files actually matter, where complexity (aka spaghetti code) hides, and makes spotting circular imports effortless. The maintainability score boils technical debt down to a single number..so you know exactly how bad things are. For vibecoders, AST Visualizer helps keep your LLM from turning your repo into a spaghetti factory

Understand any codebase in minutes. Creview visualizes code structure, dependencies, and complexity across Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, and more — no setup required.

Conquer technical debt and maintenance nightmares—whether the code was written by you, a coworker, or an LLM. Ready to analyze your next project? Python, JS, TS, HTML and more supported. Untangle legacy spaghetti and catch circular dependencies before they cause outages. High-fidelity Dependency Graphs mapping module imports across Python, JS, and TS. Identify "maintenance nightmares" at a glance and prioritize refactoring based on objective metrics. Automated McCabe Cyclomatic Complexity analysis calculated for every function in your project. Understand any repository in minutes without reading thousands of lines of code. Works by generating high-fidelity maps of your codebase via…from creview.io

  • A Satellite View for Python CodeFeb 2026 · ast-visualizer.com · ▲7

    Hi HN, I built ast-visualizer.com because I wanted a way to visualize the architecture/structure of a Python repo before dived into the code. Most tools tell you what the code does; I wanted to see how it's built. The Problem: Onboarding onto a large codebase is a nightmare. LLMs help with single functions, but they struggle to show you the "God Objects," circular dependencies, or high-complexity hotspots across 50+ files. What it does: Dependency Graph: Visualizes imports and file complexity to find architectural bottlenecks. Radial AST Heatmaps: Maps individual files and color-codes…

    Hi HN! I've found this visualization tool immensely helpful over the years for getting an intuition for how an LLM "sees" some piece of text, and with a bit of elbow grease decided to move all compute to client side so I could make it publicly available. I've found it particularly useful for - Understanding exactly how repetition and patterns affect a small LM's ability to predict correctly - Understanding different tokenization patterns and how it affects model output - Getting a general sense of how "hard" different prediction tasks are for GPT-style models Known problems (that I probably…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
