Turn Code into Interactive Flowcharts to understand it better with the help of AI. Simplify Complex Logic Instantly.
Visualize your code in the form of flow charts and sequence diagrams
Hey product hunt community :)
Shobhan here, founder of codetoflow.com. I have been a part of PH community for close to 8 years now.
When I started. Learning python, understanding open source projects seemed but difficult 😕 and I was using chatgpt to understand the flow but it was also time consuming and visualisation was difficult. So I create codetoflow to understand code and other tech concepts that I struggled with.
Code to flow helps you:
1. Visualise your code in form of flow charts and sequence diagram so that you can understand it better 🧑💻
2. Provides explanation of the code flow and functions to even better understanding
3. Helps you understand difficult tech concepts like Large language models and transformers etc and also explains tech concepts in eli5 terms.
4. Code optimisation - coming soon
He aim is to enable others to understand code better and faster so they can move fast :)
We would love to hear your feedback and suggestions and anything that you feel will improve codetoflow done you and make it more useful to you.
Help us build a better product to help others learn better :)
Congratulations to team Code to Flow on your launch! A truly innovative product that seamlessly turns dense code into easy-to-understand flowcharts. My suggestion is perhaps offering a feature that allows user-specific customization in the visualization. Like having different themes or allowing users to choose how detailed they want their flowchart to be. Overall, fantastic work! Keep it up.
@manmohit thanks a lot for your feedback :)
what kind of customization are you thinking about apart from details? details one is a good suggestion, will add it.
Hey there! Your product, Turn Code into Interactive Flowcharts, sounds like a fantastic tool for visualizing complex logic in code. I can see how it would be incredibly helpful for developers to understand their code better. I'm really excited to try it out
Congratulations on launching this fantastic tool that transforms code into interactive flowcharts! I've had the chance to try it out, and it's absolutely awesome. The way it uses AI to break down complex logic and turn it into easy-to-understand flow charts and sequence diagrams is mind-blowing. It's like seeing the language of code in a whole new light. Can't wait to use it more and see how it revolutionizes my coding workflow!
Wow, this looks great! What kind of AI technology is used to power the flowchart generator? How does this help reduce complexity of code? Looking forward to hearing more about this innovative tool!
@itsawaisyounas This uses openai apis to explain the code in detail. the AI breaks down the workflow in simple words so that you can understand how information is flowing. Sequence diagrams will help you understand it even better.
Please check it out and let us know what do you think about this :)
@sophia_gpt hey, i am about to add a feedback option which will allow users to give feedback on the flowcharts generated and then will modify the model accordingly
@supershobu You literally named your company after your main competitor. You are codetoflow and the other company is code2flow. They've been doing it since 2013
@lee_fischman sorry for the confusion :)
the name is similar but the functionalities are completely different. Code2flow enables you to create flowchart with flowchart syntax( just as lucid or mermaid js or any flow chart tool). whereas codetoflow enables you to create flowchart from your existing code(actual code and not flow chart code) to understand the flow and get the code explanation using AI.
I didn't see any tool doing this in the market so built this :)
please do try it out and let me know your feedback :)
Congrats on the launch! 🚀
One question though - How do you ensure the veracity of the visualization? Since LLMs have a tendency to hallucinate at times..
good idea, but from a point of view of a non technical person, it will not still be difficult to interpretate? the detailed code steps, as the text inside each box looks generic
