Scantool - File Structure Explorer

Scantool scans files and directories to create a structured map of the codebase, leveraging a tree traversal algorithm to identify and categorize key elements like functions, classes, and modules. This mapping allows users to visualize the hierarchy and relationships within the code, enabling quicker navigation and understanding of large codebases. The tool uses a lightweight indexing system to maintain performance while scanning, ensuring that users can access the structure without significant delays.

This capability allows users to search for specific code structures, such as tests, async methods, or data classes, by implementing a keyword-based search mechanism that filters results based on user-defined criteria. The search operates on the indexed structure of the codebase, enabling quick retrieval of relevant elements without scanning the entire codebase each time. This targeted approach saves time and enhances productivity by allowing developers to focus on specific areas of interest.

Scantool generates a compact overview of key elements within the codebase by summarizing the indexed structure into a visual format that highlights essential components. This overview is created using a combination of data aggregation techniques and visualization libraries, allowing users to quickly assess the most critical parts of their code. The overview can be customized based on user preferences, enabling tailored insights into the code's organization.
