Tyriar, thanks SO much for minimap! I use multiple editors. I mark up some of my files with designs that can be seen from a "high altitude" minimap view, and I've had to use a different editor for those files until now. With minimap, I can also edit those files with VSCode and eliminate one other editor.
I hope you'll add a variety of preferences for it, so users can decide for themselves how much "weight" they want to bear and for which features. I'd like to be able to toggle it on/off, have it show highlights, keep the viewport highlighted even when the mouse is not in the minimap, and adjust the width (sometimes I have more room, sometimes I have a VERY long file, etc.).
SEPARATE ISSUE: I wish the "Panel" (output, terminal, etc.) could be positioned side-by-side with the code instead of being fixed on the bottom, where it covers up half of your code while leaving the right side of the screen empty.
