Consider using vimspector for vscode like debugging
There is this REALLY cool project that uses DAP from vscode to allow the same debugging experience by re-using the extension ecosystem.
Check it out here: https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector
Seems like this would go a long way complimenting coc-nvim in emulating IDE features.
Thanks for the suggestion! I've heard of this but to be honest haven't had a real reason to use it, though I surely will eventually. I'll take a look myself but I will probably add it since there's nothing else that covers this use case at all.
Wow this was fast! Great to hear that you will consider it. I use it daily to work on c++ code and so far it has been a blast.
Cool! Is there any specific configurations/keybinds that you find to be helpful in your workflow? Maybe <leader>+somekey to open the debug window?
vimspector comes with a set of predefined keybindings to manage debug sessions, see this. so we just need to set let g:vimspector_enable_mappings.
i have also seen people define keymaps for quick navigation between vimspector windows e.g. nmap <leader>dw :call win_gotoid("g:vimspector_session_windows.watches") this will jump the current window to the Watches right away instead of using window navigation; see this link for reference.
oh, and using the same window ids you can shift the layout as well, say you dont want the terminal window or you would like to adjust the size of the variables window to be bigger, see this for an example
