[cfe-dev] Coati - Clang based interactive source explorer for C/C++

[Eberhard Gräther via cfe-dev]

Hello Yaron,

we looked at the code browsing features IDEs currently offer and found that the possibilities are still limited. With Coati we designed a tool that focuses on the semantics of the language, so it can offer an overview of the codebase as well as all the details of the implementation. We built it as a standalone tool to make it available for every developer, regardless of their currently used tools. Additionally we offer simple plugins for some code editors to make application switching easier.

Regards,
Eberhard
