Debug *.js.dna files with sourcemaps

Now, the only way seems to be to generate the rna file and debug that file.

Yes. But I don't think there's an easy solution for that. Every compiler (and ribosome is a compiler) can either require generating the output and using the underlying language's debugging tools on that or build its own debugging tools.

I am putting this as a future goal. I haven't looked at it very closely.

The way to debug node-javascript is to use the browser debugger (like chrome debugger). Chrome supports sourcemaps. So it seems that we just need to generate the sourcemaps.

I haven't looked how to do it but javascript has quite a big community that makes me optimistic.

For reference, I need to look at these:
