Source Code Hunter is an open source project by Doocs that focuses on analyzing and explaining the source code of widely used Java frameworks and libraries. It helps developers deepen their understanding of internal implementations, design patterns, and performance optimizations by walking through actual codebases such as Spring, MyBatis, Netty, Tomcat, and others. The project aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application by providing step-by-step annotated explorations of core components in these frameworks. It’s a valuable resource for Java developers preparing for interviews, system design discussions, or those looking to strengthen their ability to read and learn from production-level code.
