Semantic search of open source code to improve software development efficiency.

According to foreign media FinSMEs reported that the United States Sourcegraph raised $ 23 million in Series B funding, led by Craft Ventures, with early investors Redpoint Ventures and Goldcrest Capital participating. This round of financing will be used for the company to develop related businesses and expand its business scope.

Sourcegraph is a company that provides code search servers for businesses. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in San Francisco, the United States was founded by Beyang Liu and Quinn Slack. Code sharing to improve software development efficiency.

Why is software development inefficient and long? Most software development companies face the problem that programmers of the company work independently. There is no sharing and cooperation mechanism between developers. After the division of labor, everyone is only responsible for the parts that they need to complete. Because the work between developers is too independent, the efficiency of code development is relatively low.

The open source code semantic search server provided by Sourcegraph enables developers to query the relevant code of their company, and the development speed and quality of projects can be improved.

Sourcecore provides several core features of the code search server for enterprises:

  • Code search: Developers can quickly find the code they need on the server;

  • Code navigation: Guide developers to find specific code through specific filters;

  • Code exploration: Found known code and unknown code; < / li>

  • Code intelligence: The code in the server will be automatically displayed contextual understanding;

  • Code management: In the server, development can be carried out Automation Scale code change management.

    Sourcegraph The semantic search of open source code provided by the platform has not changed the software development process. It is only in the software development project that the efficiency of software development is improved. Through the open source code method, the problem that developer code cannot be shared during complex software development is solved.

    So far, Sourcegraph’s platform has been used by many enterprise development teams, including Uber, adidas, SoFi, and Apex.
