>surface useful contextual information Emacs with Org-mode it's far more than an editor or a mail/usenet/elisp interpreter. It's literally what you want.

No, that's exactly what I don't want. I want to edit code. Nothing else.

  Org-mode has a 'babel' programming mode. You can code and append snippets, docummentations, charts, output and anything you want. https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.html https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.html

    By contextual data I’m really just talking about things like being able to auto complete from it only the code base, but associated sql schemas as well. Or presenting code navigation as a sorted hierarchy of classes, functions, etc. Lazy human want computer do work.

        What he wants is to connect his editor to an SQL database and have TAB completion in a string for keys and tables in that database. He wants to be able to traverse a codebase by classes rather than by file. Basically he wants Smalltalk.

        I'm pretty sure Emacs could do that even with org-mode.

I really want to use Orgmode (or maybe something like Neorg/Vimviki for vim), but the biggest issue with all of those things is that somehow, there still isn't a proper mobile app for any of them. No, I don't want a simple TODO app that uses Orgmode under the hood. I want an actual app for Orgmode, something which works like Obsidian or Logseq. (In fact, Logseq supports orgmode, but that support is very limited and sometimes incompatible with actual Orgmode) I don't understand how there are so many passionate users of Orgmode yet apparently not a single one of them is a mobile developer who sometimes takes notes on their phone.
