Language Server Protocol (LSP for friends) is used in a number of code editors these days. There are implementations for various languages, but none for Salt States.

The idea is to leverage Salt state module to parse edited files to provide completion of the state ids or paths.

Looking for hackers with the skills:

      The discussion at https://github.com/glynnforrest/salt-mode/issues/17 (which is about adding auto-completion to Emacs' Salt plugin) has some interesting ideas and also mentions the rather new baredoc module.

      Lovely. You should get in touch with Dan Cermak.

      Also, are you aware of this? VS Code SaltStack Extension Pack

        Yes, I'm aware of this extension pack, but FWICT it doesn't offer real completely based on state ids for instance

      Given that salt is written in Python, I would suggest to look into pygls.
