About CodeCrab

CodeCrab is a native desktop application designed for developers seeking a fast, secure, and local-first approach to code review. By leveraging your local command-line interfaces (CLIs), it reviews pull requests within seconds, ensuring that your code remains on your machine at all times. This privacy-centric tool is ideal for teams prioritizing data security and confidentiality, as it eliminates the need to upload code to external servers. Its seamless integration with existing development workflows makes code review more efficient, especially for those who prefer a client-side solution over cloud-based alternatives. Suitable for individual developers and teams alike, CodeCrab aims to streamline the review process without compromising on security or speed.
