Heya Product Hunt — I’m Oscar, and I built Orchard because every code host today still treats code like text. Diffs are line-based. Merges are textual. Conflicts happen because the tool doesn’t actually know what a function, type, or import block is. Orchard is code hosting built around structural understanding of code. It uses syntax and symbols to power semantic diffs, smarter merges, and built-in code intelligence. What that means in practice: - you see which function or type changed, not just +12/-8 in a file - two people editing different functions in the same file don’t have to collide - code intelligence like symbol relationships and references can be built directly into the host Under the hood, I built the stack powering it from scratch: - gotreesitter — a pure-Go tree-sitter runtime with no CGo - Graft — structural version control that merges functions, not lines - gts-suite — the analysis and indexing layer Orchard consumes I’m a solo founder, and this is my attempt to rethink code collaboration from the substrate up - and I'm only 3 weeks in. Would love your feedback — especially on what you most wish your current code host understood about your code.
