One Click to Understand What You Built
You don't need to read code to understand your project. CodeAtlas turns any codebase into visual maps — see the architecture, data flow, and logic in minutes. Open source, local-first, and your code never leaves your machine.
$ npx code-atlas 
Your Codebase, Explained Visually
No more guessing how things connect. Three interactive views give you clarity — even if you've never read a line of code.
Structure Flow
See every file in your project and how they connect — displayed as a beautiful interactive map. Finally know which parts depend on each other, without opening a single file.
Logic Overview
AI reads your code and explains what each part does in plain language. Understand your entire project's purpose and structure — no programming knowledge required.
Data Journey
Follow how information flows through your app from start to finish. See exactly what happens when a user clicks a button, submits a form, or triggers any action.
AI-Powered Analysis
Works with Claude, OpenAI, or fully offline. AI generates plain-language explanations of your code — and never sends your project to any server without your explicit permission.
Wiki & Knowledge Export
Turn your project into readable documentation automatically. Export as Markdown wiki pages and build a searchable knowledge graph — perfect for sharing with your team or future you.
Local-First & Private
Your code stays on your computer. Period. CodeAtlas runs 100% locally — no uploads, no cloud, no accounts. Install once and use it anywhere with complete peace of mind.

Handles Real-World Projects

Three-layer architecture: core analyzes your code, cli runs the local server, and web shows you the interactive visualization. Everything stays on your machine.
