What do you miss the most from your previous editor/IDE after you moved to Emacs?
try https://github.com/weirdNox/emacs-gdb I like it much better than gud, realgud and dap-mode.

Helm - can it search within files?
I use https://github.com/emacsorphanage/helm-ag because searches the contents for all files in a directory. That uses ag, the siver searcher which is a variant of grep (which is a shell utility that searches file contents)

What do you miss the most from your previous editor/IDE after you moved to Emacs?
I'm not sure but maybe a tool like helm-ag or consult-ripgrep may help with this. You can interactively find lines that you need to edit, then move to edit-mode and batch rename some variables or smth.
