Formatting enhancements for exporting/searching

[vlmeyyappan]

It would be nice if the extension was re-oriented for more detailed note-taking rather than to-do tasks:

• Having the code line numbers associated with the note and appear on the side-bar would be helpful
• Grouping the side-bar notes appearance by our own created folder for the annotations and then file > class > method the note is associated with etc. would be particularly helpful
• Being able to link notes via. some reference would be useful, and potentially being able to visualise these links in a diagram (mermaid perhaps)
• Most desirably cleaner formatting of the markdown file to make it suitable for export
  • for eg. the wrapped code-blocks could somehow find the file-type (.py etc.) and label the code-block with it so it renders the code in the style of that language
  • also having the header for each section perhaps derived from the note (maybe the first part of the note can be initialised with some curly-braces and whatever we write in there is the header for the note in markdown)
  • consistent structure of the notes underneath the heading and associated code-block (some of my notes are big headers, others are code blocks, others plain text etc. in the markdown)

I would like to try contribute to this if possible but have never done any git open-source contribution or vscode extension development

Wow! Such great suggestions! I'm getting back to work more intensely on the extension so I'll refrain from making too many promises at this point. But again, I loved the suggestions, and will be taking into consideration them when planning ahead.
I would be more than happy to have you contributing to this project (if you still like to). Let me organize the open issues, possibly breaking down some of the suggestions you make here into more scoped items. Some of those might be very beginner-friendly. :)
