Description

Goal: Render code intelligence faster

Reason:

  • Particularly slow here, by default we only fetch code intelligence information on hover.
    • Ideally we could do this server side, although that might be a big task
    • Could we fetch all known symbols on load, and pre-populate those tokens ready to be used for hover overlays?
      • This would help accessibility, as we could make them buttons that are tabbable too.
      • This is essentially what the symbol sidebar does
