Graphite

What is Graphite?

Graphite is a modern developer tool that aims to fix the inefficiencies of traditional code reviews. It is based on the concept of "stacked diffs," where developers can break down a large code change into a series of smaller, dependent changes. This makes each individual review easier to understand and approve. Graphite integrates directly with GitHub and provides a slick interface for managing and collaborating on these code stacks. Its AI-powered features, called "Diamond," further enhance the review process by automating tasks.

Features

• Stacked Diffs: Break down large code changes into smaller, easier-to-review pieces.

• CLI & Web Interface: Manage your code and reviews from both the command line and a web dashboard.

• AI-Powered Code Reviews (Diamond): The AI can generate descriptions, suggest reviewers, and summarize code changes.

• Seamless GitHub Integration: Works directly with your GitHub repository and pull requests.

Use Cases

• Code Review Automation: Automate the creation of pull requests and getting them reviewed.

• Large Feature Development: Manage a big feature by breaking it into a series of smaller, dependent commits.

• Onboarding: Help new team members learn the codebase by reviewing small, well-defined changes.

• Developer Productivity: Speed up the time it takes to get code reviewed and merged.
