Show HN: Visualize the entropy of a codebase with a 3D force-directed graph
Hi HN! I'm Gabriel, the author of dep-tree ( https://github.com/gabotechs/dep-tree ), and I wanted to show off this tool and explain why it's being really useful at my current org for dealing with code complexity. I work at a startup where business evolves really fast, and requirements change frequently, so it's easy to end up with big piles of code stacked together without a clear structure, specially with tight deadlines. I made dep-tree [1] to help us maintain a clean code architecture and a logical separation of concerns between parts of the application, which is accomplished by: (1) Visualizing the source files and the dependencies between them using a 3D force-directed graph; and (2) Enforcing some dependency rules that allow/forbid dependencies between different parts of the application. The 3D force-directed graph visualization works like t
