What Hacker News says?
They have many views, the trouble is the proliferation of these views as you go through the code. You browse to a class and method, then you want to see the senders, and so you open that, and then see the implementors of a method a sender calls, and so on. https://blog.lorenzano.eu/content/images/2026/01/Pasted-imag...
