Pick your favorite Java repository and a revision and file at random (or try this one). Visit that file in Sourcegraph and within seconds, you can jump to definition (Ctrl/⌘-click), find all references (right click), search for symbols (Ctrl/⌘-p), and view usage examples drawn from other projects.

We’re excited to announce that Sourcegraph “used by” badges now support Java libraries. If you’re an open-source author, these badges tell you how many other projects depend on your work. If you’re an open-source user, the badges help you make an informed decision based on how many others are actually...

Today, we announce general availability for Java on Sourcegraph. If you write Java, this means that you can now use Sourcegraph to:

In-repository code search is now available in Sourcegraph. Simply click the magnifying glass icon above the file tree, type your search term, and click enter. Once you select a result, you’ll get full code intelligence, including our info panel whenever you click a method, variable or struct.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could review, browse, and search code on GitHub as though you were in an IDE, with jump-to-definition, doc tooltips, and cross-references? We think so. That’s why we built the Sourcegraph Chrome extension for GitHub.

Today, we’re enabling Code Intelligence on Sourcegraph.com for Java projects that use Maven. Our preview release of Java means you can jump to definition, find references, and hover over for docs on many of your favorite Java repositories — all without configuring a single editor plugin or cloning a single line of...

As an open-source author, I love seeing who else uses my projects. It’s super motivating, and it makes the world of code feel more connected (hello to my library users in Azerbaijan and Nigeria and everywhere else!). As a user, this information helps me choose the best library to use....

First, some background: Beyang and I have deep respect for how Google builds software. Beyang interned there, and I’ve worked with Googlers on many open-source projects, including Chromium. What’s their secret? How are they so good?
