Codium does surprisingly well at generating JSDoc, and it processes your code within the context of your entire codebase. Still not quite there yet, but you might be surprised
I know there are documentation generators (like JSDoc in JavaScript) where you can literally write documentation in your code and have a documentation site auto-generated at each deployment. There’s definitely mixed views on this though

Really cool! Reminds me a bit of the Numi calculator too

Yeah, that’s a literature with 3 lines so it’s easy to distinguish. The cost is obviously a huge downside compared to other fonts here though

I love MonaLisa a lot. I’ve been using it for pretty much all monospace throughout my computer. It feels very fine-tuned and well thought out, and it’s very readable too.

Yep it fully supports those ligatures. I can’t stand when it doesn’t have those lol

I used to use Fira Code, but my new personal favorite is MonoLisa

I think we can all agree on JavaScript

Yes! If you’re comfortable with Django, that’ll definitely work, not overkill at all.
If you’re down to get your hands dirty with JS, Astro is really easy to learn and can be extremely powerful if needed. TypeScript or JSDoc will give you the types in JavaScript you’re looking for, and that’s built-in to Astro too. SvelteKit is similar to Astro’s syntax but has more powerful server-side tools built-in and is my personal favorite.
Up to you, really just depends on how much you want to learn.

Codeium for VSCode. Free alternative for GitHub Copilot and it works surprisingly well
I’d still have to do some refactoring in and around my classes though. There’s some syntax that is TypeScript-only, including things like extended classes.

Next time keep it on a leash so it doesn’t run away
