Run & Debug

A multi-runtime debugging environment integrated directly into the bottom panel. It abstracts the complexity of launching debug configurations for supported languages.

Supported Runtimes

• Node.js: Built-in support for JavaScript/TypeScript (`.js`, `.mjs`, `.cjs`).
• Python: Requires `python`/`python3` and `debugpy` installed (`.py`).
• Java: Requires Java JDK installed (`.java`, `.class`).
• C/C++: Requires `gcc`/`clang` and `gdb`/`lldb` installed (`.c`, `.cpp`, `.cxx`, `.cc`).
• Go: Requires `go` and `dlv` (Delve) installed (`.go`).
• Rust: Requires `cargo`/`rustc` and `gdb`/`lldb` installed (`.rs`).
• PHP: Requires `php` and `xdebug` extension installed (`.php`).
• Ruby: Requires `ruby` and the `debug` gem installed (`.rb`).
• C# (.NET): Requires `.NET SDK` and `netcoredbg` installed (`.cs`, `.csproj`).
• Swift: Requires Swift toolchain and `lldb` installed (`.swift`).
• Kotlin: Requires `kotlinc` installed (uses Java JDWP for debugging) (`.kt`, `.kts`).

Features

• Runtime Detection: Automatically selects the correct runtime based on the active file extension.
• Controls: Standard debugging tool belt:
  • Play/Continue (F5): Start or resume execution.
  • Step Over (F10): Execute next line.
  • Step Into (F11): Dive into function calls.
  • Step Out (Shift+F11): Finish current function and return.
• Console: Interactive REPL for evaluating expressions in the current context.
• Breakpoints: Manage all active breakpoints across files from the "Breakpoints" tab.

[!WARNING] External Dependencies: While Node.js support is native to the environment, debugging for other languages relies on the host system having the respective runtimes, compilers, and debug adapters (like `gdb`, `xdebug`, `debugpy`, etc.) installed locally.
