After simplifying their internal process for navigating complex codebases, they realized that while smaller companies might not see this as a pressing issue, many enterprises did. Sourcegraph is the leading code intelligence platform that revolutionizes how developers understand, fix, and automate their code. By leveraging AI through Cody, their AI coding assistant, Sourcegraph enables developers to easily navigate large codebases, locate relevant code snippets, and gain historical context—all while streamlining bug fixes, code refactoring, and performance improvements in a single interface. Don’t miss this episode of Barrchives where Quinn discusses the evolution of Sourcegraph, the critical role of context in coding, and how AI is set to transform the role of the developer.
