Show a reverse dependency map #2

It'd be useful to be able to visualize what files depend on the current file. I've been looking through dependency cruiser's docs but it's not immediately clear to me yet how to go about that. If I figure it out I'll submit a PR.

Thanks for the idea! This is still super alpha, but happy to see you found it useful!!!! I am working on bringing a lot of the features that the dependency-cruiser includes. I have almost ready some configurations, some themes for the visuals and then I have some ideas on how to improve it further. I have been managing a backlog internally, but let me try to put that into Github for more visibility.

I'd like this too. This represents one of those missing tools for JS/TS development, especially when understanding a new project.

A cool workflow I imagine might show the output of this extension in a dedicated view, perhaps in the sidebar or terminal panel of vscode with the intention of displaying dependencies for the currently selected file, and the ability to click on each dependency/dependent to visit that symbol.

Is there any progress on this?
