at least the currently available 'best' config helper files for popular languages

Two comments:

  1. what is "popular", C, C++, Javascript, Go, Rust, Typescript, etc etc
  2. what is "best", its irrelevant if its not for the language the user uses, it just wastes their time downloading it.

It totally depends on the users use-case, the items you have suggested are totally useless to me, and something I might want like Boost++ is useless to you.

to ship

The Geany project does not "ship" anything except an installer for Windows because there is no alternative source for it, and how long that will continue unless some more contributors step up is unknown since the very nice guy who does it no longer uses it on Windows himself.

Similarly a contributor provides one for Macos, but it is in a separate repository, not "part" of Geany. For all other systems it is not provided by the Geany project.

But there is nothing stopping those distributing Geany or people like you from distributing or accumulating additional material to configure it for specific use-cases, but its not the projects intention to favour specific user groups.
