I'm surprised you went with go for this, you're going to encounter so much pain with large codebases.
Curious why you say this. It says in the readme it can do 100K lines per second.

#22This is great! Is there something similar for Typescript?

#23This is pretty awesome! If it's built on tree-sitter, is it fair to assume it's generalizable across languages?

#24This is an interesting idea but you might be better off marketing it as a tool for software engineers, maybe to help with old code bases. Or even for someone stuck cleaning up vibe coded nonsense. Vibe coders don't care about quality and wouldn't understand why any of these things are a problem in the first place.
Vibe coders do care about quality, at least the ones that try to ship and get burned by a mountain of tech debt. People aren't as stupid and one dimensional as you assume.

#25Very cool! I've never seen a cli that opens an html file when it's finished. I kinda like it, hope to see more of that in the future

#26I have a MCP server that wraps developer tool CLIs (linting, tests, etc), but this would need a textual report instead of HTML.

The SIMD story in Rust or another lower level systems language is much better, and the memory control is more fine grained without forfeiting inlining. For a hot loop that's amenable to SIMD, Rust can deliver twice the performance of Go if you don't hand roll platform specific code.

#30How does this compare to ruff?
