zachsaw··on C# now beats Rust on WASM size
Been keeping an eye on the progress of NetWasm... it looks like recent versions have trimmed it further. It's down to 38 KB with WASI P2.

I'd actually pick C# over Rust for a search engine: https://zach-saw.medium.com/if-i-were-to-rewrite-carsales-1s...

Rust would be too expensive Engineering wise even with AI today.

uh the readme itself says it comes with different flavours of precise GC so clearly not using Wasm GC?
zachsaw··on C# now beats Rust on WASM size
Those are supported afaics. It's reflection that isn't supported according to the docs.

About time C# gets some love in the wasm department. Feels as though Microsoft gave up on competing with their closest rivals in that department, e.g. Kotlin. The size vs Kotlin is even more interesting as Kotlin uses wasm gc so didn't need to carry the weight of its own gc but yet lost to C#!

whoa very nice! If possible, keep us updated. Feel free to contribute your unity skills to my repo as well.

Very good point! the graphify the tool and using graphify AS A tool have definitely beed mixed up! I'll fix this up. Thanks again and appreciate you looking into it!

It updates based on an interval that you can set as well as on demand. When file changes the file system watcher holds the events in memory until indexing is requested (interval/on-demand).

yeah on my repo the json is over 600mb
zachsaw··on Show HN: Graphify C# – Compiler-accurate Find Usages for coding agents
yes it is compatible with graphify - the json can be used directly by graphify.

lol I actually didn't know that. This is MIT licensed though.

EDIT: I think the differentiation is that this isn't MCP based. Dumping a portable json file allows much more flexibility than just having to run Rider IDE in the background with the solution loaded and indexed. e.g. the graph works with jq, CI (gates), arbitrary agents without MCP support, non MCP tools, bulk questions etc.

Exactly! I'd be more than happy to hand it over to Microsoft to continue maintaining it just to be clear. But MIT licensing it, hopefully the community will help keep it up to date with future C# versions too.

Wait is this a harness? Can I use it to replace Codex? All I see is just the benchmark page, where's the project page?
