“Facet-based project navigation You could browse a project by a tree of semantic facets. For example, if you were editing the Haskell implementation of Dhall the tree viewer might look like this prototype I hacked up2”

At work we use Clean Architecture which is incredibly hard to browse, even though I've been there for 6+ months now and know where everything is, I have to use so much working memory to gather together the files for a feature slice (endpoint, command, command handler, etc).

I've thought for a while of building this exact thing as a vscode extension because of how utterly shit it is :D

I really want the source code!

Author here: the source code is linked in the post but it can be easy to miss: https://github.com/Gabriella439/facet-navigator

It's very rough, but I plan on cleaning it up soon (the cluster labeler still needs a lot of work) and writing another post about it soon
