DXR

===

DXR is a code search and navigation tool aimed at making sense of large

projects like Firefox. It supports full-text and regex searches as well as

structural queries like "Find all the callers of this function." Behind the

scenes, it uses trigram indices, elasticsearch, and static analysis data

collected by instrumented compilers to make searches faster and more accurate

than is possible with simple tools like grep. DXR also exposes a plugin API

through which understanding of more languages can be added.
