CodeArchy
Codebases to interactive, explanable architecture diagrams.
CodeArchy is an offline-first VS Code extension designed to help developers understand complex codebases by transforming raw code into interactive system architecture diagrams. Key capabilities include:
• Multi-language abstract syntax tree (AST) parsing
• Generate professional system architecture diagrams
• Interactive visualization for dependency networks
• Conversational assistant for architecture questions
• Offline text-to-speech narration of architectural walkthroughs
This robust developer tool parses TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java, Go, and Rust natively within your editor. It extracts symbols, imports, exports, and call relationships to build a typed dependency graph, which is then used to generate clean, interactive diagrams. Users can pan, zoom, click through dependencies, and export diagrams as SVG or PNG for documentation or presentations.
CodeArchy also features an integrated conversational assistant that allows you to ask architecture questions in natural language, maintaining context throughout the session. Its incremental re-analysis feature ensures fast performance, only re-parsing changed files. Best of all, it's fully offline, ensuring your source code never leaves your machine, making it ideal for secure and private development environments.
Perfect for engineering teams, developers, and architects who need to quickly onboard onto unfamiliar codebases, safely analyze dependencies, and gain deep insights into system design without relying on external services or compromising code privacy. It's an essential tool for rapid code comprehension and team alignment.
