IntellIJ IDEA Ctrl-click, Ctrl-Shift-F, Ctrl-U, etc, Sourcegraph when I don't know which repo or do a company-wide code search or examples.
Having a lot of tabs open for a single flow of data makes my brain forget about the start of the flow, so I put named bookmarks as I go when doing this. When debugging, the same kind of flow debugging, I use conditionnal non-suspend logging breakpoints that print out relevant stuff from variables in scope.
One of the most important parts in this is closing all tabs from time to time, and putting 2 open files side-by-side, 1440p monitor helps, or splitting part of the IDE instance into a separate window on another monitor.
