Writing code is not an easy task, but someone has to do it. Fortunately, programmers and developers can make life easier for themselves with specialized utilities. An excellent example is Understand, which can analyze the code in entire projects and point out errors and other problems. It comes with a wide variety of useful tools that will give you a new perspective on coding. The software can help you build and organize everything faster and more efficiently, regardless of what language you're working in.

You can download Understand and install it on your computer in under a minute, even if you don't have the best hardware. It works on all modern Windows platforms, and it supports both 32 and 64-bit variants. Furthermore, you don't have to install any special tools or services, and you don't have to sacrifice too much memory or processing power.

The program places a customizable user interface at your disposal, so you can tailor your work environment to your own needs. A wizard will help you import your project files, which can be in various languages, including Java, C# and HTML, and set up filters if you want to avoid certain items. Once your files are imported, you will find them in a tree structure, on the left side of the interface, and you can view their contained code in the larger area on the right.

Understand serves as an excellent code editor, due to its syntax highlighting capabilities, which work for all the supported languages. You can also interact with links and open their corresponding pages on separate tabs, and expand and collapse functions, to make the code easier to look through. More important features on the toolbar and in the top menus. For example, you can have the software analyze the files you've changed or all of them, to detect and point out eventual errors. You can also bring up a code check wizard, which provides you with some useful configuration options that allow you to target files by date or other criteria and set up an ignore list.

There are numerous features to discover in Understand. Obviously, this program is intended for people who know what they're doing, but novice programmers will find it useful as well, due to its advanced analysis features. It enables you to focus on more important aspects of your project, rather than combing your code for errors.

With its advanced functionality, Understand will certainly give you a new perspective on coding.

Pros

You can import your projects and have the program analyze your code. It comes with a wide range of useful tools. You can have it up and running in less than a minute.

Cons

There are no obvious issues to point out.
