Understanding large codebases is one of the hardest problems developers face.
When joining a new project or exploring an open-source repository, it can take hours or even days to understand how everything connects.
So I built a small tool called Live Codebase.
It visualizes a GitHub repository as a dependency graph so you can quickly see how files relate to each other.
Instead of manually opening dozens of files, you can explore the structure visually.
What the tool does:
• Analyze repository structure
• Build dependency relationships between files
• Generate an interactive graph
• Help developers understand architecture faster
This makes it easier to:
• onboard new developers
• understand large repositories
• explore open-source projects
• study software architecture
The project is open source and still evolving.

If you're interested in developer tools or code visualization, I’d love to hear your feedback.
