Our take
Graphite is making advanced code review and developer tools accessible to a wider range of engineers, breaking down the barriers that typically limit such resources to teams at large companies. While industry giants like Facebook and Google use tools like Phabricator and Critique, Graphite offers open-source solutions with a command-line interface and dashboard, empowering developers of all sizes to streamline their code review processes.
What sets Graphite apart is its ability to dramatically enhance engineering team efficiency with innovative features. Unlike traditional linear code review processes - where code is committed and then reviewed - Graphite allows for concurrent reviews. This enables engineers to continue working on other tasks while their code is being reviewed, leading to a much more productive workflow.
As the company continues to roll out regular performance improvements and refine its features, its goal is to expand its user base to tens of thousands of engineers. With strong support and a growing community of users, Graphite is looking to gain traction across even the most traditional engineering teams, hoping to shift their approach to code review and developer tools toward a more modern and efficient model.
