I haven't worked on the project in a while, so I can't comment too much on the current status. But I'm happy to talk about what I learned, the challenges I faced, etc. if you have any questions about those.

The multiplayer aspect is immensely valuable. Having multiple developers walk around the same codebase together, discussing the architecture and the code, is helpful for debugging, onboarding, brainstorming, all the different ways we collaborate as developers. This kind of visualization is not a solo activity, so I can see where Vircadia would come in.

I have no idea of which project you're talking about, so I think it would help if you explained what it looked like. Do you have any screenshots?

How do you navigate it? How do you search for text in VR?

What do you visualize exactly?

Is it a static or a dynamic display? Can you drill down to actual lines of code?

How do you deal with large projects? Vircadia has 400K LOC and 11K files.
