to help programmers write better software.
When new engineers join a team, they are expected to contribute to the codebase and build features. However, understanding the company's product features, business model, solution architecture, and codebase can be a challenge. Technical documentation can help, but it takes time to create and update, and it may not always be accessible or user-friendly.
Kodai addresses these challenges by providing an automated documentation solution that is accessed through an AI chat service. The solution consists of two phases:
In this phase, Kodai embeds the current technical documentation into the AI chat service. This allows new engineers to easily access the information they need through a conversational interface.
In this phase, Kodai generates documentation automatically from the codebase and embeds it into the AI chat service. This ensures that the documentation is always up-to-date and reduces the need for manual updates.
Kodai is free and open source, and can be self-hosted on your servers. To get started, simply provide the necessary tokens for the OpenAI embedding model text-embedding-ada-002 and replicate meta/llama-2-13b-chat model. we are working on providing a local LLM option in the future, utilizing edge inference technology.
