<h1>DeepWiki but…Open Source</h1>
<p>If you’ve ever struggled to keep your GitHub or GitLab repo documentation up to date, you know how painful it can be. DevinAI’s DeepWiki promised an AI-powered solution but reportedly cost $300K in compute - a price tag that puts it out of reach for most developers.</p>
<p>What if I told you I rebuilt that entire system in under an hour, made it <strong>completely open source</strong>, and added <strong>full GitLab support</strong>?</p>
