Description

I liked the idea of graphify, but for large repos the search queries were visibly very slow.I dug into it and saw an opportunity to make it better.It is rewritten in rust and uses sqlite instead of NetworkX.There is a command to migrate from graphify or set up from scratch.Let me know what you think!

Could you build this?

Yes It is an open-source Rust rewrite of a code graph extractor using SQLite and tree-sitter or AST parsing to index repositories, well within AI-assisted Rust coding capabilities.
