This question already has an answer here:

As far as I am aware, a question consisting of a really big codebase is generally off-topic here, as our answerers are simply not able to put so much effort in it.

I'd like to talk about a special case here though, questions that are posted as a result of a Code Challenge, more specifically this case will be about this submission.

Out of personal experience, I am working on my own implementation for about two weeks already (found here), and it is currently on 3K loc and guessing 40 at about 40 files. I can imagine my final implementation nearing 10K loc and at least 100 files.

What is the process I should use for getting this code reviewed? It being such a large project, it does consist out of several modules.

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.

  • \$\begingroup\$ My code for this is also huge, I will be asking for a review on it module-per-module. Thank goodness I don't have so much spaghetti code (I think) so it is possible to separate my questions in a quite good way. As long as a question fits on 30K lines, there's no limit to how much code you have in the question. (I've been very close to that limit before, one time actually exceeded it) \$\endgroup\$ – Simon Forsberg♦ May 1 '14 at 20:59

Business as usual: break it down into as many smaller posts as needed to make it digestible.

..and should be renamed ;)

  • \$\begingroup\$ And then when I'm done breaking down the code and asking for individual reviews, I could ask about the breakdown structure as a question on programmers.stackexchange.com? \$\endgroup\$ – skiwi May 1 '14 at 14:16
  • \$\begingroup\$ @skiwi I think you could ask about the breakdown structure here as well. Not sure if it would be on-topic at programmers. \$\endgroup\$ – Simon Forsberg♦ May 1 '14 at 20:59
