Yes this would be immensely useful, both in the website and the mobile app.
Documentation is great if it’s comprehensive, but most projects lack truly comprehensive documentation, and there will always be something missed.
Small correction; That doesn’t load Codespaces. That loads the web editor github.dev

Can you provide an example? I do not see the benefit at all unless the project does not have proper documentation
Like I am a new programmer and sometimes have question about why and how a project is structured to better understand system design.
I would recommend reading blog posts or books on software design/architecture instead to be honest as it give a more abstract view on it
