I’m Leyton, creator of Ghost Note, a VS Code extension featured on the VS Marketplace homepage in 2025. Website: https://www.ghostnotedev.com Problem: Code comments clutter repos, external docs go stale, and bookmarks break when code moves. Developers need a way to capture personal notes without polluting version control. Solution: Ghost Note lets you attach private notes to functions, classes, and variables. Notes survive refactors, stay hidden from Git, and can include docs, images, or media—making large codebases easier to navigate.

I'm impressed! It sounds like the perfect balance between clarity and privacy. I always wished I could leave notes without cluttering the codebase. This is a productivity boost I didn't know I needed.

@siri_nana Thank you so much for your interest! Let me know if you'd like access to the Pro version for free for 12 months. The Pro version supports a much wider variety of languages

Nice idea. If there's a Jetbrains version sometime I'd love to give it a try :)
