In plain words
Experimental Semantic Code Explorer is a developer tool launched in January 2021 that helps programmers understand and navigate code using semantic analysis.

The tool provides an alternative approach to traditional code browsing and searching methods.

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…
