Octohint

IntelliSense hint for GitHub

What is Octohint?

Octohint is a remarkable Chrome extension designed to streamline work on GitHub. It enhances GitHub by adding IntelliSense hint, which allows for easier code analysis, reveal all references of a specific token with a single click and navigate to the definition of any token by pressing [⌘] + Click or [Ctrl] + Click for Windows and Linux users. All these happen directly in your browser with no data sent to any server, ensuring privacy and security.

Summary

Analyze keywords

Octohint adds IntelliSense hint to GitHub.

With Octohint installed, when you view code at GitHub (For example this demo), you'll get features as follows:

Mouse Hover: Show information of current token
Left Click: Show all references of current token
[⌘] + Click: Go to definition of current token (For Windows and Linux user, use [Ctrl] instead)

Octohint is a pure client thing. All code analysis are performed at your browser, which means your code and actions log like click, mousemove will never be sent to any server.
