📝 Re.Me — Make Comments Without Editing Code

Re.Me is a VS Code extension that allows you to leave comments on code lines without modifying the code itself.
No need for

,

// FIXME

, or

console.log

— all comments are stored separately but always within reach.

💬 Comment. Analyze. Return. Without a single line of code.

---

✨ Features

• ✅ Comment on any code — even in third-party files or
  node_modules
• ✅ Automatic binding — comments stay on the correct line during editing
• ✅ Hover highlighting — instantly see where notes are located
• ✅ Search and navigation — quickly find all comments in the project
• ✅ Resilient to changes — if a line shifts, the comment follows it
• ✅ Lightweight and fast — data is stored locally in
  .re.me/comments.json

---

🎯 Who is it for?

• 🔍 Code review — leave notes before creating a PR
• 🧠 Project exploration — mark complex sections
• ⚙️ Refactoring — plan changes without
  // TODO
• 🛠 Debugging — mark problem areas without cluttering production code

🖼 Panel Example

[Re.Me Panel]
📁 src/
└── file.ts
──── 📄 file.ts.
──── → 15: // Old API — replace with fetchUser().
──── → 42: ⚠️ Caching doesn't work with SSR.
──── → 88: ✅ Verified — works.

🔎 Hover over a comment → the line will be highlighted in the editor
🖱 Click → navigate to the line

⚙️ How to use

1. Install the extension:

In the editor:

2. Open a file → select a line → right-click → Re.Me: Add Comment Here

3. Or use the ➕ button in the Re.Me panel (in the Activity Bar)

4. All comments are displayed in a separate panel.

Search, edit, delete — without leaving any traces in the code.

---

🧩 How it works?

Re.Me uses line checksums and context (prev/next) to bind comments.

Even if you:

Add lines
Change order
Move code —
→ the comment stays in place \

📂 Where is the data stored?
All comments are stored locally in the project: \

your-project/
└── .re.me/
└── comments.json \

🔐 Secure, won't be committed to Git (it's recommended to add to .gitignore)

---

📢 Planned features

• Multi-user support (via Git)
• Comment export/import
• Block-level comments (not just line-based)
• Git integration — show comments per branch
