I have similar needs to understand complex code base such as 5-20gb of Android platform code, so I wrote an webapp/site for that:

It lets you cross reference and document any language with gigabytes of code, e.g. Android platform code. Jelly bean ~9 gb of code.

Try it out: http://www.srcmap.org/s/sl.htm/p=android-4.2.2_r1

Sample Documents created from that app are here:

The ux is ok. A few gigabytes of code db running in a cheapest $5 instance of Digital Ocean.

The app is very simple ~8 mb of standalone binary, no external dependency do any other app/db.



What does the yc folks/alum think? Good enough to get into yc?


Who are you selling it to / what's your plan to grow any part of the biz?


For now, free for individual developers to help validate and get tractions, like to see if i can entice free higher level license with exchange for contents/sharings, Doesn't seem to be working.

I like to sell it as team/site license for large dev team in the future. The traction doesn't seem to be there yet.

Because my burn rate is < $150 per year, I have ~1500 users / month come to the site from pure google search alone.

I am just slowly experiment with different features/msg/channels.
