SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
I really like the idea of CodeTour, but unfortunately I'm the only person at the office that uses VS Code.
I'm hoping that some day it'll be possible for my coworkers to follow a CodeTour without installing VS Code.
Either when GitHub Codespaces reaches general availability or if I ever find the time and motivation to learn enough about github1s [1] and CodeTour to integrate the two.

For vim I use the CodeReviewer plugin [1] to capture comments for files. I modified it to use differently named comment files and to jump to the file locations from the comment line. I am planning to include support for hierarchical comments or referring other comment files from within one. Also the problem of tracking code changes or referring to a certain git commit is still there - in clearcase it can be easily done with a reference to the branch, but not sure how to do it in git.
