FAQPage Schema
How do I identify shallow modules for codebase refactoring?

To identify shallow modules for codebase refactoring, you can survey your project structure to detect modules lacking depth. This process highlights architectural friction and suggests improvements to enhance modularity and testability.

What is the best way to improve codebase modularity and testability?

Improving codebase modularity and testability involves analyzing the structure to find deepening opportunities for shallow modules. This approach provides design guidance and visual reports to address architectural friction effectively.

How do I generate an architectural visualization of my codebase?

You can generate an architectural visualization of your codebase by analyzing its structure to produce a self-contained HTML report. This report includes before and after visualizations with badges to illustrate proposed refactoring improvements.

Do I need domain knowledge to analyze codebase architecture?

Yes, analyzing codebase architecture requires knowledge of the project's domain and architectural vocabulary. This prerequisite ensures the suggested refactorings and design walkthroughs accurately align with the specific structural needs of your software.

When should I avoid using automated architectural refactoring suggestions?

Automated architectural refactoring suggestions should be avoided when you lack knowledge of the project's domain or architectural vocabulary. Without this context, the proposed design walkthroughs and module deepening opportunities may not align with actual structural requirements.
