Hi SkyWalkers,

I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to share my latest blog post
<https://sourceplus.plus/blog/post/2022-06-08-ide-shaping-with-live-commands>
with
you all. In this post, I discuss a new feature of Source++ (a live
debugging tool built on SkyWalking) that allows developers to customize
their IDE with data directly from SkyWalking.


The current implementation is relatively simple but for a better idea of
where I'm going, imagine if you're IDE not only offered static IntelliSense
but practical IntelliSense. Instead of just hinting that an int variable's
valid range is from -2^31 to 2^31-1, it mentions that in practice (in
production), this particular int variable has only ever held a value of 0
to 300. This would require monitoring specific variables, but given those
variables are important enough, that wouldn't be an issue.


Has anyone heard of/thought of features like that? I'm only aware of Dark
Lang <http://darklang.com/> doing it.
