I talked about applying networked thoughts to programming

Applying the idea of networked thoughts to programming

and one of the things I realize could help toward this goal is "smart filtering". Talking specifically about React, suppose there's a component of interest. Sometimes it's useful to see the component in the context of the hierarchy i.e. the parent controlling the component to manage that interaction. Other times you might wanna see it's children. Other times you might want to see the CSS attributed to the component to properly style it.

"Smart filtering" the code like that to show the desired context instead of relying on folder structure might be a better approach. For example, create "relations" from this component to other components ( like "parent of", "child of", "styles to") and then you could inspect a component in the context of its relations.
