OpenDeepWiki: Empowering Developers with AI-Driven Code Knowledge

What is OpenDeepWiki?

OpenDeepWiki is an open-source, AI-powered code knowledge base platform developed by AIDotNet. It automatically analyzes code repositories and generates detailed, visual documentation to help team members quickly understand project structures and implementation principles. The platform is designed to assist new team members in onboarding, aid maintainers in organizing project logic, and provide development teams with intelligent code insights.

Key Features

• Automated Code Analysis: Utilizes AI to parse and understand codebases, producing comprehensive documentation without manual intervention.

• Visual Documentation: Generates visual representations of project structures, making it easier to comprehend complex systems.

• Multi-Role Support: Caters to backend/frontend developers, project architects, and technical writers, providing tailored insights for each role.

Technical Architecture

• Frontend: Built with Next.js, React, Ant Design, and TypeScript, offering a responsive and intuitive user interface.

• Backend: Powered by .NET 9, FastService API, Semantic Kernel, EF Core, and supports both SQLite and PostgreSQL databases.

• AI Service Layer: Integrates with AI models like OpenAI to perform code analysis and generate documentation.

• Design Patterns: Employs dependency injection (ASP.NET Core DI), repository pattern (via WarehouseStore), and managed services for scalable and maintainable architecture.
