My issue is, I need an editor that knows that a field annotated with @Resource with a type and name of SomeService foo is injected by a DI framework and makes it easy for me to navigate to implementations of SomeService with a name of `foo`.

Sure, I could put hundreds of hours into half-way replicating what an IDE does. Or, I could just use an IDE that was written by people who've felt the same pain as me. TextMate might be good for the occasional Ruby or Python script, but even then - do I have to manually manage virtualenvs while working on this script, or can my IDE do it for me? (Spoilers: Intellij can)

My understanding is that people who want this sort of thing use a client server set up with a server that does all of the AST parsing and linting separate from the editor.

I feel like there’s a weird power thing some people get sucked into that ends in forcing everyone around them to use their preferred (often IntelliJ or vscode) editor often via the argument that the linter configuration only works in it.
