IDE support for showing which parts of a file are evaluated at compile time?
I often get into trouble with Elixir and compile-time values. I’m wondering if there are any IDE plugins that highlight areas of code that are evaluated at compile time. E.g. module attributes and macros. Sometimes I’m not always 100% sure what is a macro and what might be some interesting new feature that some clever developer has deployed. So it would be a helpful reminder that some stuff is evaluated at compile time, and that may affect how I structure certain code.

The problem is that until you do compile, you can’t know which part will be evaluated, since the compilation stage runs any code at top/module level and that code can do anything.
