GitNexus is a tool that helps you explore code visually. It works right in your browser without the need for a server. You can load any GitHub project or a ZIP file with code. The app then creates an interactive map that shows how different parts of the code relate to each other.
If you want to understand code faster or see how a project is built, GitNexus makes this easy. It also includes a built-in feature called the Graph RAG Agent, which helps you ask questions about the code structure.
- Works entirely on your computer inside the browser. No internet connection is needed after loading the app.
- Supports GitHub repositories and ZIP files.
- Creates a clear visual graph of the code structure.
- Allows you to explore folders, files, and code connections interactively.
- Includes a simple assistant tool (Graph RAG Agent) to help answer questions about the code.
- No installation of extra software or servers is required.
- Windows 10 or later.
- Any modern web browser like Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or Firefox.
- At least 4 GB of free memory (RAM) for smooth performance.
- Around 200 MB of free disk space to download and save files.
- Internet connection for initial download and loading GitHub repositories.
