Haystack - Visualize and edit your codebase on an infinite canvas

by

Haystack re-imagines the IDE by putting it on a 2D digital whiteboard that automatically draws connections between code as you navigate and edit files. We designed it to match our mental model of how code works together – as a graph of connected components.

When I deal with some complicated codebases, I will use your tool to visualize the connections between code sections.

this looks amazing, downloading it right away! Is this build on top of VSCODE? Does it work with all the same extensions (and possibly also through SSH)?

@felixneolocus It's a fork of VS Code so you can import your extensions and use SSH!

Hi @akshaysg and congrats on the launch! Super interesting and innovative tool for anyone that needs to dive deep into complex codebases. Just a quick question: is Haystack going to be integrated within VSCode or is it a replacement for it?

@neolocus It's a standalone editor for now, but we do plan on making a "Haystack-lite" extension!

Congratulations on the launch 🎉 Haystack looks cool, love the infinite canvas! I’ve been developing ConverForm.com, a tool that turns static forms into engaging, conversational experiences—could be a great way to connect with your early adopters. All the best ahead!

hey @akshaysg, haystack sounds legit. though not tried, but seems like a game changer for coders, makes code navigation seem smooth.

Congrats on the launch, Haystack team! 🎉 This looks like a game-changer for developers navigating complex codebases. The idea of visualizing code on an infinite canvas is super innovative and definitely aligns with how many of us mentally map out our projects. The automatic code connections and the ability to isolate relevant code components are features I can see becoming essential for any developer. Kudos to @akshaysg and the team for bringing a fresh perspective to IDEs! Can't wait to give it a try. 🚀
