#sourcetrail is a really interesting approach to code base exploration. But it's no longer maintained and it only supports java, c++ and python. Here's a video that show's how it worked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cfu6f0uyzc8

I'm thinking it shouldn't be too complicated to create something similar that uses the #languageserverprotocol to add support for a lot more languages.

I'll add it to my backlog of stuff to look at haha.

Sourcetrail is now free and open-source software

"Sourcetrail is a cross-platform source explorer that helps you get productive on unfamiliar source code. It uses static analysis on C, C++, Java and Python source code and lets you navigate the collected information within a user interface that interactively combines graph visualization and code display."

It is said to be able to cope with the huge #LibreOffice code base, so it can't be too bad ;-)
