I use ctags+vim every day with rather large C++ codebases (but then again I'm a dinosaur).

Curious, I was under the impression that ctags offers a 'jump to definition' functionality, but little more. (i.e., 'find all references' isn't supported).

Is that correct? Do you use if for functionality beyond the 'jump to definition/jump back to previous context'?

That's correct, there's "jump to definition" but no "find all references". I've used cscope for a while for that, but never really got used to it (and it doesn't work that well with C++).

I really should get with the times and try LSP like others suggested.
