Not on the current edition
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar

Crabviz is a Visual Studio Code plug-in to create call graphs. The graphs are interactive, which is essential when working with even moderately large codebases such as a microservice. They show types, methods, functions and interfaces grouped by file and also display function calling relationships and interface implementation relationships. Because Crabviz is based on the Language Server Protocol, it supports any number of languages, as long as the corresponding language server is installed. This means, though, that Crabviz is limited to static code analysis, which might not be sufficient for some use cases. The plug-in is written in Rust and is available on the Visual Studio Code Marketplace.
