Show HN: File-by-file AI-generated comments for your codebase
4 by swiftstart | 0 comments on Hacker News.
My friends and I were complaining about having to decipher incomprehensible code one day and decided to pass the code through GPT to see if it could write easily understandable comments to help us out. It turns out that GPT can but it was still a hassle to generate comments for large files. So we decided to develop a basic web application that automatically integrates with your Github repository, generate comments, create a pull request and send you an email when it is all done. There is definitely a lot more that can be done but we wanted to gain feedback on whether this is a problem that you face too. Do you often find it challenging to understand complex code? Do you have difficulties in writing informative comments? And if so, would you find value in a tool that can automatically generate comments for your code? Really appreciate any feedback and suggestions! Thanks in advance!
