FAQ from Codex Atlas

What is Codex Atlas?

Codex Atlas is an AI-native documentation platform that transforms raw source code into precise, maintainable, and developer-first documentation—automatically, continuously, and without friction.

How to use Codex Atlas?

Connect your GitHub repo via OAuth, choose visibility settings (public/private), and let Codex Atlas handle the rest—from parsing logic flows to generating interactive module trees and annotated endpoints—all served as a static site with CDN acceleration.

What programming languages and frameworks are supported by Codex Atlas?

Codex Atlas natively supports Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Rust, Java, Ruby, and C#. Frameworks include React, Next.js, Django, Flask, Express, Spring Boot, Laravel, and more—with extensible parser plugins for custom DSLs and domain-specific codebases.

How does Codex Atlas keep my documentation up to date?

Using GitHub webhooks and incremental AST diffing, Codex Atlas detects structural and semantic changes—then regenerates only what’s necessary. No rebuilds. No downtime. Just always-current docs, versioned alongside your commits.

Can I switch between light and dark modes in Codex Atlas?

Absolutely. Dark mode respects OS preferences by default—but users can override it anytime with a single toggle in the top-right corner. Both themes meet WCAG 2.1 AA contrast standards.

How quickly can I find what I'm looking for in Codex Atlas?

Powered by Algolia’s real-time indexing, Codex Atlas delivers sub-100ms search results—even across 10,000+ symbols—with fuzzy matching, synonym awareness, and contextual ranking (e.g., prioritizing frequently accessed classes or recently modified endpoints).
