kandi Reviews

I primarily use the kandi platform to find the required library or code snippet. It's easy and fast to search and filter based on languages, technology topics, licenses, sources, etc. 

The platform also allows the saving of favorite libraries and code snippets for future reuse. 

It also lists trending discussions, top authors, and star ratings. 

The best part is the kandi X-Ray, which analyzes libraries on various parameters and helps developers select the best library for the application development requirements. 

Open Weaver's boot camps based on kandi single-click kit solutions are also very informative and useful. The format of these boot camps is to showcase step-by-step tutorials to help early-stage developers.

kandi helps developers jumpstart application development. 

It helps them accelerate building the required solutions using open-source resources. 

It helps find the required libraries, code snippets, APIs, and kits from various sources across the web. Most importantly, the platform is free to use.  

It can be used even without signup or login. 

kandi's save functionality allows developers to find their favorite libraries and code snippets for its reuse. 

My space allows users to further add their own comments and descriptions.

All the features of kandi are great, including the ability to find open-source resources and kandi kits and having a My Space to save and reuse favorites, explore pages, etc. 

kandi X-Ray is also a very good feature and useful for finding the right library from the list. 

Source code included projects in single-click kits and demonstrated in bootcamp or digital self-certification videos is also valuable for any or early-stage developer. 

kandi's industry-ready project-based kits in various topics like Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, etc. are very valuable for students. 

The platform could provide more use-case-based kits in various languages and technologies. These would be very useful for early-stage developers. 

I didn’t find any major negatives until now since it serves its purpose well.

An IDE integration as a plug-in would save the hassle of searching and copying too. This would allow developers to customize the code and build their solutions on a single platform. 

Apart from that, they can improve user support with chat if any developer needs further info.

I've been using kandi since last year.

I have hardly ever noticed any downtime for kandi. The kandi search bar is available prominently on the home page and the header of all pages. We just type in what we are looking for in the search bar. kandi instantaneously gets the best match libraries, code snippets, and kits for the requirement.

kandi helps find precise code snippets and libraries from over 430 million knowledge items, 500+ topics, 22 languages, and 150 frameworks, which in itself is quite impressive.

kandi's customer support, queries, and other information about training schedules and events are available through email and chat support on their community platform.

I used to refer to various sites like Github, Stack Overflow, and other forums for libraries, code snippets, and trending discussions. Now, with kandi, I can search for any open-source resource under a single platform. 

There is no setup required to use kandi as it's a cloud-based platform on a SaaS model. It can be accessed from any browser, or any device.

There is no implementation involved. It's self-serve and easy to use with fast results.

On average, kandi helps me save a couple of hours when it comes to finding the right kind of library for building applications.

kandi is easy to use, fast, and quite helpful for any developer. The good part is it's free and needs no subscription or licensing. Signup is only required if anyone wants to save and reuse libraries and code snippets. 

I did try looking for other options, yet none of those were as elaborate and exhaustive as kandi. The number of sites from which kandi sources is more than any other tool. 

I used to use search engines to search. However, the results were not structured and I often didn't find what I was looking for.

I would not hesitate to recommend kandi to anyone who is looking for open-source resources.

We run an omnichannel service. We do develop and maintain the platform on Magento, WordPress community versions, and other custom technologies like PHP, Javascript, and others. 

I need code and plugins for new features and upgrades. kandi is a great place to find those. 

I am able to find libraries that are useful for PHP migration and data migration as well as JS plugins for UI features like adding a calendar widget, captcha, forms, and other things. For many, the review and Q&A are also available, which makes it easier to shortlist.

Our business runs on a platform built on community versions of Magento and WordPress and custom technologies like PHP, MySQL, Javascript and more. As we make updates to our operations, we need to update the platform across multiple technologies. It is critical for us to find code, libraries, and solutions for specific issues on our open-source, custom technology platform. 

kandi helps us find these faster and in one place along with all dependencies, and we are able to also see scans, quality, and security ratings to decide easily. This really helps speed up our platform development and maintenance.

I find the unified search most useful. I can put my requirement in simple English and then get all possible code snippets and repositories listed in one place. 

It also lists any dependencies that the code has, like packages, and provides an easy way to download those. 

There are some good reports on the repos and Q&A on the code from other sources that give context so I can select items better. 

Another useful feature is the ability to save these assets and add comments and share them as a kit with my colleagues. This helps us collaboratively find solutions.

kandi does a good job in algorithmically finding, scoring, and filtering code, repos, and other useful assets. As a user, I would recommend two areas for improvement. 

First, there can be user comments for the assets so we can share in the community which worked, any changes required, or if we faced any errors and can ask for inputs from other developers. 

Also, while the kits are very useful in creating larger projects, they need to find ways to provide more kits on an ongoing basis. This can even further help than finding code snippets and repos. 

I've used the solution for over a year.

Already the solutions are in millions. I expect this to be scalable and stable going on into the future.

I used to use Google, Reddit, StackOverflow, blogs, GitHub, and many other sites to find these answers.

kandi is surprisingly free. I hope they keep it that way.

There are no direct equivalents. Googling and reviewing too many SEO-based articles is the next best thing.
