This is the only reason (at least for now) that makes me dig into a library code. And I always got some benefit from it. I think we often treat libraries as voodoo blackboxes, but they're more often thatn not created by normal people with great skills. Sometimes it's a great way to learn a way to code, or even better, to understand the behaviour of a library. I found myself doing it more often when the IDE itself downloaded and linked the sources. (Lazy, I know). |

Same here. It's about trivial inconveniences. I sometimes can be bothered to download and read through the codebase of a dependency, but most of the times I end up in third-party code happen when it's just a single jump-to-definition keypress away - the same keypress (M-.) which I use all the time for my code. That seamless browsing really blurs the difference.
