How would i get intelliji to understand (navigate, look up source code, etc..) a .boot file? Cursive doesn't seem to be able to do static analysis on it.

Where Can i find a high level description of a boot pod?

The namespace doesn't feel like a good place to start. https://cljdoc.org/d/boot/pod/2.8.3/doc/boot-pod > Namespace containing functions and vars related to pods, dependencies, jar files, and classloaders.
