Understand the code you didn’t write.
Parse points at a GitHub repo and turns it into a guided course — lessons, quizzes, hands-on practice, and a debugging assistant. Ramp on an unfamiliar codebase in hours, not weeks.
- Lessons built from the real files in your repo
- Auto-generated quizzes and graded hands-on practice
- Stack-trace debug assistant maps errors back to the code
- Stays in sync — re-analyzes on every push
Affixly Parse is a code-comprehension tool that turns any GitHub repository into a guided course. It reads the repo directly, organizes the code into themed sections, and generates lessons, multiple-choice quizzes, and hands-on challenges from the actual files — plus a stack-trace debugging assistant that maps errors back to the exact function. Built for anyone ramping on a codebase they didn’t write.
A repo someone else wrote, and no map.
Joining a team, inheriting a legacy project, or onboarding onto open source means staring at thousands of lines someone else wrote, with no map. Reading top to bottom doesn’t work and the docs are stale. Parse builds the map and teaches you the code automatically.
Connect a repo. Parse turns it into a course.
Connect a repo
Sign in with GitHub and pick a repository. Parse reads it directly; your access token is encrypted at rest.
Parse analyzes it
Detects the stack and primary language, then organizes the code into themed sections — Auth, Database, Routing, State, Infrastructure, Tests, plus a catch-all.
Learn section by section
Each unit pairs a real snippet from your repo with a plain-English explanation and a real-world analogy.
Test yourself
Auto-generated multiple-choice quizzes drawn from the actual code, not generic theory.
Practice hands-on
Open-ended challenges grounded in real files, with starter code and progressive hints. Submit and get graded against the original.
Track progress
Per-section read status, quiz scores, completed practice, and a per-repo summary.
Everything keyed to your actual repo.
Built from your actual code
Every lesson, quiz, and challenge references the real files in the repo you connected. Not generic tutorials.
Stack-trace debug assistant
Paste an error and Parse maps it back to the exact file and function, explains what went wrong, and links the relevant lesson.
Language cheat-sheets
Instant reference for the repo’s primary language — Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Go — with syntax tables and inline keyword tooltips.
Search across the codebase
Find anything by title, file, or explanation.
Stays in sync
Connect a webhook and Parse re-analyzes incrementally on every push to the default branch. Only changed files regenerate, so progress and existing lessons are preserved.
Real-world analogies on every unit
Turns “I read it” into “I get it.”
For anyone dropped into unfamiliar code.
Connecting a repo requires trust.
Parse reads your code to teach you — nothing more.
Access tokens encrypted at rest
Your GitHub access token is encrypted before storage and never kept in plaintext.
Read-only by design
Parse reads your code to teach you. It does not modify your repository.
