Hound by Etsy vs Sourcegraph: What are the differences?

Hound by Etsy: Lightning fast code searching made easy. Hound is an extremely fast source code search engine. The core is based on this article (and code) from Russ Cox: Regular Expression Matching with a Trigram Index. Hound itself is a static React frontend that talks to a Go backend. The backend keeps an up-to-date index for each repository and answers searches through a minimal API; Sourcegraph: Code search and code intelligence for you and your team. Sourcegraph is a code search engine that lets you search across hundreds of thousands of libraries and browse code in the same way you can do in a great IDE. Search for a function, see live examples of how it’s used by other repositories, and jump to the definition of other code around it—even if the definition is in a completely different repository.

Hound by Etsy and Sourcegraph can be categorized as "Code Search" tools.

Hound by Etsy is an open source tool with 4.13K GitHub stars and 440 GitHub forks. Here's a link to Hound by Etsy's open source repository on GitHub.
