Some good recommendations in the article.
Greppability is also helpful when you start scripting your editor. Vim has `includeexpr` and co. to implement some "intelligence" when trying to find declarations etc. This enabled me to write a couple line snippet that immediately could resolve Bazel starlark symbols even in "imported" (`load()`) files. At one point I realized I have better code navigation than any of my colleagues using IDEs.
This, and tools like ripgrep really help a lot. This is something that VS Code developers also realized when indlcluded ripgrep itself as their "backend" of searching in files.
