I created an code search tool made in Flask called Codel.

What My Project Does
Codel lets you search code not just from Github, Gitlab or Gitea, But from any reference of that code on the internet. From reddit posts to blog posts containing code.

Target Audience
This is aimed at developers trying to find code, reliably, and not relying on AI to generate new code.

Comparison
Codel doesn't justlet you search code snippets but entire git repositories, Something most code search tools can't do, relying on you to go to the individual website like Github to search for the repo, Codel simplfies it.

I'm working on that, Thinking of making it a feature of search code snippets specifically in repos, Codel does accept searching Github Gist for code snippets or use press the "Code" button on the sidebar when you search something.

This is really cool! Love the focus on finding code everywhere, not just the usual hosts. Can Codel search for specific code snippets inside those full repositories too?
