I Wanted to Press F5 and Debug JavaScript — So I Built My Own VS Code Debugger
Описание и применение
Разработчик создал расширение VS Code, которое позволяет отлаживать JavaScript в браузере одним нажатием F5, автоматически запуская локальный сервер, Chrome и устанавливая точки останова.
Задача
Developers spent excessive time configuring browser debugging environments instead of focusing on application code.
Результат
Developers can debug browser JavaScript with a single F5 press, eliminating server and configuration overhead, and focusing on code inspection and breakpoint management within VS Code.
Рабочий процесс
- Set a breakpoint in VS Code
- Press F5
- The extension starts a local web server
- Launches Chrome via CDP
- Establishes DAP connection
- Configures breakpoints before page load
- Loads the application
- Debugging proceeds inside VS Code
Доказательства
Set a breakpoint. Press F5. Debug my JavaScript.
The extension starts a local web server, launches Chrome, establishes the debugging connection, configures your breakpoints, and then load the application.
