> You're editing a file (or parts of different files) and are focusing on say 5 methods that are interacting. I want to see all of them on the screen at the same time, without having to struggle to open and manage many windows with for example VS horizontal/vertical sliders

Regarding this, maybe haystack could be interesting for you

I haven't tried it myself, but I intend to.

This looks awesome, any users out there that can opine?

Not sure this is the answer but for sure this is highlighting the right question. I’ve never been a teacher, but having been involved in mentoring newbies more often than I expected.. error traces with absolute filenames and terminals with Click-to-edit-file support are the smallest effort you can put in to get the biggest results (although this can also lead to confusion with virtual envs and such).

That’s just the beginning of the nav we really want though. The key point is all about focusing on “don’t make me mess with file systems” because the code already has many dimensions of inherent structure.

That's pretty neat, I'll definitely try it out!
