Explore your Code

Every developer knows the challenge: you're assigned to a new codebase, and suddenly you're lost in millions of lines of code, trying to piece together how everything works. What does this module do? How do these components interact? Where do I even start?

Swimm's Explore eliminates the guesswork.

How Explore Works​

Explore uses advanced static analysis to automatically understand your repository structure, discover modules and their relationships, and then leverages AI to generate comprehensive artifacts based on that analysis.

What Explore Does for You​

In-Depth Code Analysis​

Point Explore at any codebase and watch as static analysis performs an in-depth examination of complex flows, identifies key modules, extracts business rules, and reveals how everything connects. Understand intricate systems without spending days reading code.

Intelligent Module Discovery​

Swimm analyzes your code structure to identify logical groupings, recognize patterns, and surface the components that matter most to your work.

AI-Powered Documentation Generation​

Once your code is analyzed, select any module and have AI generate detailed explanations covering:

  • What the module does and why it exists
  • How it fits into the larger system
  • Key dependencies and relationships
  • Technical implementation details
  • Business logic and rules

Mermaid Diagrams​

See dependency relationships and module interactions through auto-generated, code-coupled diagrams. Navigate directly to any part of your codebase by clicking nodes in the diagram, making it easy to understand data flow and component coupling.
