Figstack

Figstack is a web application designed to assist developers in understanding, documenting, and optimizing their code more efficiently. This AI-powered platform leverages a foundation model trained on billions of lines of code to provide features that simplify the coding process across various programming languages.

Key features:
- Explain Code: Interprets and explains code in natural language, useful for understanding complex or unfamiliar code.
- Language Translator: Converts code between different programming languages, facilitating learning and project migration.
- Docstring Writer: Automatically generates detailed docstrings for functions, outlining parameters and return values.
- Time Complexity Analysis: Analyzes code efficiency in terms of Big O notation, offering insights for potential optimizations.

How it works:
1. Users sign up via Google, GitHub, or email.
2. They access various tools through the web application.
3. Users input their code for analysis or translation.
4. The AI processes the input and provides results based on the selected feature.

Integrations:
Google, GitHub (for authentication purposes)

Use of AI:
Figstack uses generative artificial intelligence trained on billions of lines of code. This enables the platform to understand and generate human-like explanations of code, accurately translate between programming languages, and automate the creation of comprehensive documentation.
