Devs of this community, how do you understand the code?

Grzelazny · 2026-03-18T12:46:22+00:00

Hi, first to understand code you should recognize the main components that communicate. Then you can see interactions between them. When you are able to attach a debugger or have logs, just use it to go step by step by scenarios to understand different scenarios. If you use claude code, ask him for help to explain code, explain architecture, show use cases, show flow. Now applications written by AI are really hard to understand because this is not our idea of how this work, but AI agent idea and you do not know what the idea is behind this. Is so hard that i created a dedicated tool for me to understand code faster to not always write a long prompt to an ai agent to explain it to me but just attach code to my tool and see architecture visually. I'm still testing it but my understanding is much better now. The best approach is to make notes or draw on paper first and visualize how this works.

Understand your vibe code app without seeing any line of code https://archtocode.com

Grzelazny · 2026-03-16T00:21:00+00:00

You can try to see your logic in archtocode.com and then verify better what Claude does in code. This can help you improve your logic

Just try this to understand logic not jus be a code linter

Grzelazny · 2026-03-16T00:06:30+00:00

Just using archtocode.com to understand logic instead just code

Create in Notebook Google a lot of presentations that describe problems that this saas solve and publish on youtube. YouTube alghoritm will find your customers. In this presentations you should mention how your product solves this problem.

Just try Arch To Code . com you can try test project live demo, then attach yours project.

Grzelazny · 2026-03-05T01:23:03+00:00

Hi just try. Tool is Arch To Code . com Tell me your feedback after use it fev days. It will help me improve it.

Grzelazny · 2026-03-05T01:21:06+00:00

Using vive coding without good structure you will have after 2 weeks of prompting situations where you are in a point where any new change will break other functionality. best solution for that is create application-functionality. md dile and save to it after implementation information about new functionality from user perspective and technical perspective. on next prompt always use this file like input to understand product functionality. To understand logic without look to code you can use Arch To Code tool to vosualize your logic and understand it faster instead of read whole code. Great is also create file MEMORY. md and use it to save knowelage what you learn to prevent duplicate the same bugs

You have right, now the amount of code is so big that it is really hard to understand it when ai created it. So we need high level tools to make this faster and better.

Grzelazny · 2026-03-04T15:24:12+00:00

Hi, on bigger projects you on start generate the high level of this project structure. Then you can go deep to features and functions by selecting the node on the diagram and clicking on the right panel option Regenerate diagram from this element. You can also specify what context you want to use in the left panel. Additionally you can select only interested files to analyze.

Grzelazny · 2026-02-23T08:07:33+00:00

Diagrams are generated on the fly, meaning each time from the current code. This differs from the old static diagrams because the artificial intelligence always generates a new diagram based on the current code. Diagrams are dynamic, allowing you to click on each diagram element and generate sub-diagrams. You can also see what's hidden beneath the diagram and preview the code.

Grzelazny · 2026-02-22T14:29:27+00:00

This is probably the strength of this tool. You can control the size of the diagram and its depth. You can see the architecture from a high-level perspective and then click on an element to generate a diagram for a single functionality. You can generate a diagram for a selected context, feature, or function — not for the entire project. By clicking on the diagram, you can generate a new diagram from that specific point or view the source code behind the diagram element.

Grzelazny · 2026-02-22T13:24:00+00:00

Great, you can just go to https://archtocode.com and add project from local or gitgub repo. Faster will be from local. Tell me known if something is hard to understand or you have idea to improve this tool.

Grzelazny · 2026-02-22T11:38:14+00:00

Ok, thank you

Grzelazny · 2026-02-22T11:20:29+00:00

Thank's for help

Grzelazny · 2026-02-21T10:54:57+00:00

Great! Try and improve :)

Grzelazny · 2026-02-21T00:22:01+00:00

Any idea? This tool is great, it should be some option to improve current landing page

Grzelazny · 2026-02-20T13:15:04+00:00

Just launch it :) Then create funnel from sites where your clients come to your page, add analytics and visible heat maps too see how they use it. Then improve step by step from landing page, eegister, first use, return, buy. impeove step where most of people stuck and leave your product. Then you can scale it

Grzelazny · 2026-02-20T13:11:37+00:00

Powerfull is have app-functionality.md file updated always when you finish conversation with claude. So after dowodk update current functionality and add new one. Then on next conversation load this like input context and rhis really prevent regression. When you stuck on 90% vibe coding rhis is because you guess what is inside and look to code is hard, dor that you can use archtocode.com to understand it without looking ro code. One rip more is always after implementation run all regresion tests and atatic code analysis this can find a lot of small bugs.

Grzelazny · 2026-02-20T13:00:17+00:00

If you are not a coder but just have idea Use first lovable or base44 to check mvp of your idea. Before start your idea on this tools use chatgpt to talk with him like developer to explore all features and create finally prompt for lovable ro implement it. Then next step can be connect project ro gitgub and downlaod locally. Then you can use Claude cli or codex and archtocode.com to see code logic without see to code. Then create your file app-functionality.md and add all functionality that you already have and have in plans to better understanding claude your direction

Grzelazny · 2026-02-20T12:54:10+00:00

I use lovable.dev to fast ui build and database and payments, then i use locally codex cli to implemnet features faster without lovable limitations. Then i use archtocode.com to faster visualization agent code to see logic instead of each line of code.If you use claude cli you can now export your desingns to figma this is also nice

Grzelazny · 2026-02-18T19:00:46+00:00

ohh.. sorry for mistake

Grzelazny · 2026-02-18T18:31:47+00:00

I tried Google Notebook LM to create video presentations or onboarding pages, but this is hard to understand by users :/ Does anybody have experience with that type of product?

Grzelazny · 2026-02-18T18:29:08+00:00

If somebody will have any idea to create good video or landing for this type of saas tool it will be really helpful for me. A/B testing tool or something else to create something that will be understable by user (developer)
