CodeMark+: browse every TODO across the workspace

CodeMark+ (v1.10.1, MIT) turns scattered TODO/FIXME/NOTE annotations into a navigable workspace layer in VS Code — with a sidebar Tag Browser, Ctrl+Click navigation from Markdown notes to source lines, and per-language comment templates. Covers the fresh v1.9.0–v1.10.1 contextual navigation feature alongside honest caveats about early-stage community adoption.

Auto Import Plus: a Rust daemon that fixes auto-import in your TypeScript/Python/Java monorepo

Auto Import Plus (v0.1.3, MIT) replaces WASM-based auto-import logic with a native Rust daemon that indexes TypeScript/JavaScript/Python/Java across a full workspace — cold-scanning 22k files in 2–4 s with sub-millisecond query latency.

Pyrefly: replace mypy with Meta's Rust-powered type checker in one pip install

Pyrefly v1.0.0 (Meta, MIT, released May 12 2026) is a Rust-built Python type checker and LSP server that replaces mypy in both CI and the editor with a single pip install. Independent benchmarks show 49× faster than mypy on a 120k-line codebase. The VS Code extension (meta.pyrefly) and PyCharm 2026.1.2 native integration both work out of the box.

Oxc for VS Code: lint and format JavaScript 50× faster than ESLint

The Oxc VS Code extension brings oxlint and oxfmt — both Rust-powered, both multi-threaded — into your editor. On a real 5,360-file TypeScript monorepo, oxlint finishes in 1.3s vs ESLint's 2m 27s. Here's how to install it, enable format-on-save, and migrate from ESLint without breaking CI.
