Summary

In the fast-paced world of IT and software development, knowledge transfer (KT) poses significant challenges due to the spread of information, mixed technologies, and the rapid evolution of projects, often leading to fragmented knowledge and misunderstandings. To address these issues, a novel system has been developed that organizes KT sessions using personal images to generate video explanations paired with code snippets, enhancing comprehension. This approach, which won a hackathon prize, leverages LlamaIndex and D-ID to consolidate information and simplify the KT process. The solution involves four stages: code parsing to break down the code base into manageable blocks, using LlamaIndex for generating summaries and detailed explanations, creating videos with D-ID for dynamic presentation, and integrating videos with code snippets for an immersive learning experience. This method offers a scalable, language-neutral approach to documenting and understanding code bases, envisioning a future where entire code repositories can be cataloged in explanatory video formats, potentially transforming organizational knowledge sharing.
