Explore codebase efficiently in VSCode with adding markers into a stack and switching among them.
Features
Add markers for code of files.
Organize markers by stacks which is more like call stack.
Paste call stack (e.g. from VSCode debug CALL STACK view).
Indent/Unindent marker to make it like call hierarchy.
Drag and drop markers and stacks to re-order them.
Set title, colored icon, tags and reposition for a marker.
Copy markers as markdown into clipboard.
Show gutter icon for the line of marker.
Data is saved in workspace .vscode dir with JSON format.
Support multiple folder workspace.
[ ] Support stack groups (group is also nested).
[ ] Add default keyboard shortcuts tab/shift+tab to indent/unindent marker
Tips: If you want to get a Call Stack style like debug view, which is showing function name as the marker title other than the code of marker's line, select from the marker line to function name line, then add code marker. Try it and see!
