ATLAS
ATLAS is how I explore new projects. Instead of reading file by file, I let ATLAS crawl the directory and show me the relationship graph. You can literally see which files are the "core" and which are just peripheral.

VISUAL GRAVITY
The Intent
Reading large codebases is exhausting. Static diagrams are boring. I wanted something that felt alive and spatial.

The Build
A tool that uses PageRank to calculate node size and d3-force to layout dependencies. It creates a "visual gravity" that accurately reflects the code structure.
Reflections
Graph theory is incredibly useful for software engineering. Seeing a circular dependency as a visual "knot" makes it so much easier to refactor.
