Seyed Jafar Mousavi

Have you ever opened a massive repository, stared at the file structure for 10 minutes, and felt like you needed a map just to understand where to start?

We’ve all been there. Whether it’s a legacy codebase or a new open-source library, navigating code takes a massive toll on our cognitive load. That feeling of “information overload” is exactly why I started building Zbloue.

The Problem: Context Switching

As developers, we spend way more time reading code than writing it. When you jump into a new codebase, you’re constantly trying to figure out:

  • What does this module actually do?
  • How do these components interact?
  • Where is the business logic hidden?

The Solution: Zbloue

I wanted to build a bridge between complex code and actionable insights. Zbloue is an AI-powered code analysis tool designed to help developers “get” a codebase in seconds, not hours.

The Tech Stack

Building this has been a great journey in Developer Experience (DX):

  • Next.js (App Router): For a fast frontend.
  • OpenAI API: The engine behind the analysis.
  • Supabase: Handling the data layer.

The biggest challenge? Handling the AI context window effectively to ensure it understands the intent behind the code, not just the syntax.

Building in Public

I’m building Zbloue in public because I believe the best tools are built with community feedback.

I’d love to hear from you:

  • What’s your biggest pain point when diving into a new codebase?
  • Have you tried AI tools for code analysis before?
