If you are a code developer look into LSP and DAP which provide language and debugger support for any editors that support these protocols. This came from how VSCode provides these services, but pretty much every editor/language combo is probably supported.

Essentially you will be able to do things like auto-completion, reference/definition finding, and debugging for pretty much any language in your editor using a standard interface. Amazing!

I've yet to configure Emacs to use these personally, it's on my list to do very soon...
