whereami [work in progress]

A neovim plugin that helps to point to a specific place inside your code. Inspired by Intellijs "Copy reference" function. Useful for discussion, feedback, code reviews, and collaboration

The plugin is still work in progress. It already works in many languages, but for some it will probably not yet produce a good result. I am trying to develop a universal solution for all languages. I love to hear your feedback!
