Debugging

[felipebueno]

I like exploring code bases using a visual debugger, setting breakpoints here and there and clicking things to see how they interact. Off course I also use debuggers a lot to debug 😁 things.

I'd like to configure my local sn environment to be able to debug using vscode or any other editor/ide but I have no experience with Next.js or any other full-stack js framework, specially inside docker containers. Do you (@huumn @ekzyis and the other devs) have any idea if this is possible?

PS: I'll keep researching and I'll let you know if I find anything useful

Update: I know it's possible to debug things inside docker containers (I already did that with Laravel). I just don't know how to accomplish that with Next.js yet

I just saw there's a launch.json file in the project but nothing happens when I click "Launch Program"

Nextjs has a guide here: https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/configuring/debugging

I tried it once a couple years ago, but I couldn't get it to work. It's had an update so it might work now.

@SatsAllDay was working on it awhile ago and ran into a bug: #450

Nice! I'll take a look at the guide

Hmm it seems that's still ongoing. They just opened a new PR

vercel/next.js#60919

Yea it's not advancing as one would hope
