Factory is one of the best looking new entrants into the AI coding space.
It takes a wholly different approach to big development projects — making it possible to use a tree view to dig into your repos (remote and local), and then add all the necessary context to ask your most vexing development questions.
Even better, it works using Chrome's relatively new File System Access API, which means you can work on local repos directly in the browser without anything additional to install.
Personally, I've been enjoying getting to know the team better and am super stoked for this launch! 🏭

Who hunted Factory?
Factory was hunted by Chris Messina. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
