I find a vertical monitor really helpful for writing and reviewing code. I generally have the IDE split into tabs both horizontally and vertically, with vertical stacking most often unless I want something side-by-side. I tend to favor 1 argument per line/1 parameter per line for lists of 3 or more entries, this pushes me harder towards vertical monitor orientation and helps lines be narrower.
Email, Slack, other comms tools in a horizontal monitor. Web pages often are nicer to read vertically, more like a good printed page.
What do you mean "multiple contexts in large projects?" In IntelliJ, I'll have different windows/projects for different workspace dirs, each dir with a different branch or repo. Then I can code review in on branch without losing context for work I'm doing on another. Wish I had more monitors.
