I don’t know how to set up debugging in VSCode.

To debug using VSCode, the first step is to create a debug configuration file in the project. Here are some common configuration options:

  1. Open VSCode and navigate to the project folder.
  2. Click the debug button in the sidebar of VSCode (or press the F5 key).
  3. Click the “Create a launch.json file” button (or select “Create a launch.json file” at the top of the debug panel).
  4. Select the environment you want to debug, such as Node.js, Chrome, etc.
  5. Depending on the selected environment, VSCode will create a basic launch.json file for you, which you can modify as needed.

Here is an example configuration for debugging with Node.js.

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "node",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Launch Program",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/index.js"
        }
    ]
}

In this configuration file, we used the Node.js environment and set the debug entry file to be the index.js file located in the root directory of the project.

Once the configuration is done, you can start debugging. Just set breakpoints in your code and then click the debug button in VSCode to start the debugging session.

Please note, this is just a simple example configuration file. You can create more complex configurations based on your project and needs. If you are using other environments like Python or Java, you can find corresponding configuration examples in the VSCode documentation.
