This is a big issue. I personally not a big fan of both Slack and Discord. I think something like Github Discussions is much better. As far as other solutions...maybe Stackoverflow can have something like this too for open source projects
I suggest you try JetBrains IDEs depending on your tech stack. They have got an incredible search capabilities. You can search for a word/function where it has been used across project, you can find and replace across the project, etc. It's amazing!
Wouldn't Vscode alone can do the trick?
I have been using Vscode previously and could easily find implementions/definitions inside the project by searching.
Never used JB webstorm before, there will definitely be a learning curve with this new IDE. I am not sure the benefits weigh more than the time i have to get used to new IDE.
VSCode is pretty barebones. You'll need to setup a language server and figure out how to search everywhere and also learn grep in the process if you don't know it already.
In Webstorm, you just press on Shift twice and a popup appears that allows you to search for everything you need. Since the IDE indexed all symbols in your project already, you'll be able to quickly find whatever you need.
