simple neovim debugging setup (in 10 minutes)

Some simple setup for nvim-dap (in particular, for elixir) as part of my neovim config rewrite. I really hope you enjoy the video :)

Never needed a debugger as I never write bugs but thank you for this video father. Rust btw

really enjoy these nvim 10-15min clips. I don't have time to sit through live stream sessions, but these ones help improve vim skills bit by bit, really gold. Thanks TJ!

"hey, how do you debug your application?"

"Oh, I just dap on it and it knows better when to step in and out of line."

Thanks! I've been enjoying your content this past year. Keep up the great work!

[boyeverjoy]

we need a 3 hour in depth tutorial on debugging on neovim lol. thank you for your hard work!

This was wild timing, I was literally just battling with setting this up today and then this was posted :0 Ty for the great guide!

I'm loving these plugin videos. I'm definitely going to try and setup the SQL plugins after watching that video. Thanks for doing this, TJ.

You're one of the people i regularly watch. Your content is solid, easy to follow and you feel genuin. Because of all the guides to nvim, I'm now a user; even professional and even more I've been inspired to create my first youtube myself. Thank you.

Huge video, awesome series. Love this kind of content from you!

I enjoyed watching the work on this happening live, but it’s also great to see the concise explanation like this after the fact. Thanks Teej!

[spacewad]

debugging is the only thing that i don't use neovim for so i really appreciate this video and as some other commenter noted we'd really appreciate an exhaustive treatment of this topic. cheers!

[when-harry-met-sally]

Just the video I needed. You are the man. Great videos.

[nemethda]

I'm loving these type of content, you are a legend TJ thanks so much

Love all the new neovim videos! It would be awesome to see you revisit the "how to make a neovim plugin in lua" one you did with bashbunni too. Every time I go to make a plugin I end up lost and confused in the API (make a buffer? then a window? and then do what?) but I have a smol brain so its basically to be expected. Cheers teej, I hope you do not stub your toe for many weeks.

Lua, Neovim and Elixir, bro teej is taking the brazilian stack really serious.

[jatinderbraich]

Being an elixir developer I can say this is a huge one! Thanks TJ

I have found that the hardest part is getting the debugger working consistently. It’s way more work for me to keep my debugger working than it’s worth because logging almost always works for me. This probably depends on the language and WSL makes it even harder.
Great video for the Neovim side of things though!

[WillLillis]

Awesome stuff as always TJ, thank you!

[warrenhenning]

I think this video is an excellent litmus test for whether Neovim is for you or not. Do you want to set up how you want debugging to work or do you just want to press the debug button and have your code launch in a debugger for your language? The benefit of Neovim's approach is that you can do things like have it display sensitive data as as shown at 1:25, which is super awesome and handy if you need it.

TJ explains perfectly. I love you, dude.
