I've been working on building plugins on top of JupyterLab and their documentation leaves much to be desired. I usually have 15 tabs open on their public GitHub repositories learning how to use their own API. GitHub does a decent job of parsing symbols (class names, etc.) so you can double-click on those to see dependencies and references of some symbols quite helpful. Of course this feature breaks down when code is split across multiple repositories.
Also one thing that has been missing from all these code search engines is tracking how a variable might traverse through the code. In cybersec this is called taint analysis. But for my purposes it greatly helps with just program understanding.
My .02 is whatever GitHub does here should be directly integrated into the main GitHub UI.
