We recently graduated from an Industrial Development course in Python. One of the graduates, Alisher K., asked a wonderful question, the answer to which may be useful in your work.:

For work, I need to dive into a new project with a large codebase. What is the best way to do this?

The answer to this question was given by Alexey Dral, who, working for large international IT companies such as Yandex and Amazon AWS, has repeatedly faced the need to dive into large-scale projects from scratch.:

When I had to dive into large projects, regardless of the availability of documentation, at some point it becomes necessary to link all the classes and functions in the code base into a user-friendly interface in order to understand exactly which part of the code you need to get into in order to add functionality to meet the requirements of the Customer (application client). My favorite tool was Doxygen.

Doxygen is a static code analyzer. It allows you to automatically identify all functions, classes, their signatures and relationships. The tool allows you to automatically generate documentation in a given format (HTML, PDF, etc.).

Is it useful? Rate it!

Tell us in the comments, what tools do you use to immerse yourself in new projects?

The next launch of the Industrial Development course in Python will be on May 19, 2025:

, Waiting for the launch on 19.05

I want to start now!
