On the frontend I have a sweet debugger setup with neovim and chrome but there’s definitely a time investment setting it up. The overhead exists almost entirely because of how the code goes through a Typescript, Vue/Vite transpiler and needs to sync with the source map… so breakpoints aren’t a 1-to-1 connection.

So yeah console.logs are still quite common even if you have a great debugger because it’s the most accessible and laziest option.

But there’s something very rewarding about getting really good with a debugger and figuring things out quickly.
