>but how does that scale to using new libraries which may lack documentation? it doesn't really that well which I guess is a drawback. I'm not dogmatic about it so what I usually do with a new larger codebase is I just open it in vscode, read around somewhat, look at the symbols and use that for a while and then when I'm kind of familiar with it I go back to emacs. >I'm jealous of your memorization it's was actually very difficult in the beginning and one of the reasons I started doing is because I noticed just how bad my memory and attention had gotten without tools. Even with other things, as a kid I could read for five hours straight and a few years ago I noticed I couldn't read for 30 minutes without distraction.
