NeoVim & Rust
I also recommend you https://github.com/preservim/tagbar with https://ctags.io/ installed , it will map definitions (functions, enum, struct etc..) to tags and tagbar plugin allows you to open a split window with the mapped list and navigate through your file, it also enabled more advanced features for quick navigation .

How do you figure out which #include a function/variable came from?
grep, Ctags, Cscope, LSP

Vim plugin like vscode "go to definition" function
Vim has the tag feature built-in, which allows it to jump to the tags that were found by a tool like universal ctags using :h CTRL-]. See :help tags for more information on this. Fun fact: this is the approach that Vim uses when you use :help!
-
Neovim config from scratch (Part II)
Requirements: You need to have a CTags implementation like universal-ctags installed on your system (on every system where you use vim).

How to check the memory usage of my plugins?
Install https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags

Project reading tools
If you are heavy Vim user, you do not need anything else. For just quick browsing, simply use ctags, make sure to use universal ctags (https://ctags.io) not exuberant ctags which are no longer well maintained. Go works out of box.

Help me set up vim for linting and a file tree please and some other stuff
Other (built-in) tools for file navigation in Vim include: :h :ls and :h :buffer to navigate in your buffer list (i.e. the files you have loaded); everything listed in [https://vimways.org/2018/death-by-a-thousand-files/](romainl's "Death by a Thousand Files" articles in vimways); using tags by installing universal-ctags to generate the tags then using any of the commands in :h tag to navigate them; setting global marks to files you use often with m[UPPERCASE LETTER] and jumping to them with `[UPPERCASE LETTER]; :h :vimgrep…

Ctags and referencing static functions, is it possible?
I have good news for you. Universal Ctags, an Exuberant Ctags fork and essentially its replacement, has fixed this already:
-
Searching files or words using fuzzy finders
Vim has built-in functionality that works pretty similar to what you want. If you have a tags file (for example, using universal ctags), you can hit Ctrl-] (:h Ctrl-]) to jump to the declaration of any function under your cursor. Or, if you don't have a tags file, you can use gd (:h gd) to jump to a local declaration within the open file.

Vim distros: LunarVim, AstroVim, IdeaVim, … how they differ one each other?
The only Vim distro I'm aware of is SpaceVim (https://spacevim.org/). I just tested it for a short time but it couldn't compete with my hand crafted settings ;-) But I'm using some of the plugins of SpaceVim in my setup, eg. vim-which-key and vista.vim.

is anyone using preservim/tagbar with typescript?
Once you have LSP setup, vista can display known LSP symbols like tagbar should.
