What is a good open-source system for code search if I want to plug 100 or so git repos into it and have it available over the web? GH search is not desirable because it would search too broadly and would not cover repos on Gitlab etc. I looked at the Debian code search [1] in the past, but for some reason thought it required a bit too much effort and didn't complete my investigation of it. Though [2] looks pretty approachable. Sourcegraph mentioned Zoekt [3], but I am not sure how usable it is. If it was pretty good, why did Sourcegraph OSS exist? Finally, from all the discussion how Sourcegraph OSS was very behind in the past few years, I guess there is no serious plan to fork it? Edit: GCS release [4] seems to have been open-sourced without a frontend. Edit2: Livegrep [5] and Opengrok [6] were recommended higher in the thread. Quite ex

I have noticed newer generations of developers believe they need heavy frameworks like React to develop web applications. Most apps don't need such heavy frameworks. Here's a 500-line "framework" (if you can call it that) https://github.com/Rajeev-K/mvc-router and here's an example app built using it: https://github.com/Rajeev-K/eureka For templates I used https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder which is a 200-line lib. This is about as "close to the metal" as you can get, and still be productive.

> Both github and gitlab have it If you want to search code sitting on your local hard disk try this tool (built on top of Lucene): https://github.com/Rajeev-K/eureka I made it when I was frustrated by existing tools such as sourcegraph and opengrok.

> SPA pattern has failed to simplify web development The SPA pattern is fine, it is React Router and Redux that has overcomplicated things. Here's an example of an app written using the MVC pattern that is way simpler than the React stack: https://github.com/Rajeev-K/eureka It uses two very simple libs: A 500-line router: https://github.com/Rajeev-K/mvc-router/ A 200-line templating library that uses JSX syntax: https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder/

> Most times, a frontend framework is added as well to handle the rendering of these pages, increasing complexity further. This is true, but it doesn’t need to be this way at all! Here’s a single page app written without a bloated framework: https://github.com/rajeev-k/eureka And here’s the client-side router, which is all of 500 lines: https://github.com/Rajeev-K/mvc-router React + Redux + ReactRouter is way too complicated and it is getting more complicated every passing day, with things like react hooks and so on. But 90% of web apps don’t need that complexity.

I would like to demo a simpler alternative to Vue and React: manipulate DOM directly. I do it in this application: https://github.com/Rajeev-K/eureka I find myself more productive coding directly against DOM APIs, using these tiny libs: MVC router (500 lines): https://github.com/Rajeev-K/mvc-router/ JSX templating (200 lines): https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder

Here's an example of a vanilla JS app with good architecture: https://github.com/Rajeev-K/eureka
