Seems to be much more complicated and slower than godoc.org

  Quinn from Sourcegraph here. Sorry for the slowness. It has to pull a lot of data to show the code highlights and cross-reference counts, and it's getting a lot of traffic. We're working on improving the perf. As for the increased complexity vs. plain godoc.org, we thought about just forking godoc.org and adding this in (instead of integrating it into Sourcegraph), but this was a quicker way to get this out there, and lots of folks seem to like it so far. Would you prefer to just see this linked/highlighted code and the usage examples in the godoc.org page design?

    It seems like something is broken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptzmn3aT0qA&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptzmn3aT0qA&feature=youtu.be (FF 35.0.1)

      Quinn from Sourcegraph here. Looks like a bug on Firefox that we need to fix. Thanks for reporting it. Filed @ https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph.com/issues/373 https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph.com/issues/373.

Quinn from Sourcegraph here. Thanks for posting this! It was actually a quick hack project I built on our API for fun last night. It basically uses sourceboxes (https://sourcegraph.com/blog/sourceboxes-a-better-way-to-embed-code-snippets https://sourcegraph.com/blog/sourceboxes-a-better-way-to-emb...), which are like Gists but with jump-to-def and doc tooltips, to display the function and type signatures for godoc definitions. It's pretty rough, but we'd love to hear feedback. And if anyone else wants to build similar tools using sourceboxes or our API, go for it and reach out if I can be helpful (sqs@sourcegraph.com). BTW, thanks to the awesome @kisielk (gorilla maintainer, etc.) for the gosrc.org domain. You can just go to gosrc.org/github.com/some/pkg to use gosrc.org for any package.

  Thank you for building Sourcegraph! The years between Google Code Search and Sourcegraph just weren't as fun.

The refs for function call locations alone make the wait worth it, especially when looking to contribute to others projects and first diving in the code.
