Visual Studio Code Tutorial - Basic Debugging w Ruby

The built-in debugger for Visual Studio Code is both powerful and easy to use. It's a welcome tool for any developer.

The debugger for VSCode works almost exactly like the debugger for Visual Studio Express (and other versions). You set a breakpoint and you can view active variables, set watches, and look at the call stack.

Certain languages offer more powerful functionality. For example, with C# you can edit your code while execution has stopped on a breakpoint. Pretty cool stuff.

Best intro for the beginners in content, speed and depth👍

I cannot get this to work when the code has user input (with Kernel.gets)... it just doesn't accept user input and hangs on that line

This was actually very helpful, thanks!

Useless Video, just wasted time, why you claim its debugging, when it does even work for ruby..
