I've been thinking about how IDEs like VSCode are evolving into more than just tools for writing code, they're becoming robust platforms for exploring, experimenting with, and understanding code. With the integration of AI assistants, this experience has become even more interactive. However, that level of interactivity is often missing when consuming code through articles or screencasts, which can hinder comprehension.
I'm currently developing a VSCode extension that I believe you'll find intriguing. It enables users to create guided tours through large codebases, showcasing how complex software is built from the ground up. Fully integrated into the IDE, it captures and replays every interaction: clicks, scrolls, and edits while syncing with video, audio, and visual aids to offer an immersive, interactive learning experience that surpasses traditional methods.
I've been working on CodeMic for the past year and put together a demo. I'd love to hear your feedback.
