How TreeGPT Works: The Art of Code Visualization

At TreeGPT, we often get asked: "How do you know exactly what my website looks like from the inside?" The answer is a blend of smart technology and artistic interpretation. Here is a simple look under the hood of our generator.

1. The Input (What goes in)

It starts with the simplest thing possible: A Website Address (URL). You simply type in a domain name like google.com or your-shop.com. That’s it! We don't need your passwords, your server access, or your source code files.

The Magic in the Middle

Once you hit "Generate," our system acts like a Digital Architect & Artist. It doesn't just copy; it interprets.

2. The Process

Our engine breaks the job down into three distinct roles:

The Explorer (Scanning)

First, our system visits the website just like a human visitor would. It quickly looks around at the "public" pages—your Home page, About section, Contact page, and Products. It counts how many different sections and links it can find to understand the scale of your digital footprint.

The Architect (Structuring)

Next, it takes that list of pages and builds a "skeleton" or blueprint.

Crucial Step: Since we can't see the private code hidden on your servers (that would be hacking, and we don't do that!), our system uses smart estimation.

It says, "Okay, this looks like a big online store. A store usually has these kinds of folders, these kinds of image files, and this much complexity."

It then "fills in the blanks" with realistic-looking file names and folders that would likely exist for a site of that size. This is why we call it an "artistic visualization"—it's a scientifically grounded impression, not a 1:1 copy of your private code.

The Artist (Drawing)

Finally, it takes that structure and plants a "seed" in the center of your screen.

  • Folders become branches that split and grow.
  • Files (like images, scripts, and pages) become leaves and fruit at the ends of the branches.
  • The colors represent different types of files (e.g., blue for logic, green for styles).

3. The Output (What comes out)

The result is a Living Digital Tree. You get a unique, interactive tree that represents the "DNA" of that website.

  • Small Website = A cute, small sapling with few branches.
  • Huge Website = A massive, complex oak tree with thousands of branches.

You can zoom, pan, and explore this map, and even download it as a picture to share with your team or clients.
