Awesome stuff! Great timing too. Code Search is super useful and there are a bunch of folks already going after this space. Sourcegraph, CodePilot.ai, Searchcode.com, and many more! Happy to see something so light and elegant for the use case. Good work!

Thanks, it's a simple layer on top of the existing APIs and search interfaces so it's not nearly as feature complete as those other services(that would require actually crawling and indexing). I made it just for fun but who knows, might be worth expanding on.

What's the front end? I've been thinking of building something similar, but I'm bad at front-end tech.

The frontend is reactjs. Very simple.
