    Linux

    Okay, is there any debugger with a GUI, that isn’t just the command line interface in either a separate window or just a tab in VSCode?

      What’s wrong with command line?

      I divide my work between 3 things: code IDE, browser, and command line. I have a pop down console that has some 20-30 tabs, each with some 2-4 command line consoles each. It’s awesome, fasr, and efficient. I pretty much never use GUI tools for anything at all.

      I’ll do almost any task you do in 30 minutes on GUI in at most half that time on the command line.

      I know that the command line isn’t for everyone, but if you’re a developer, or DevOps or anything alike, get the command like and get twice the work done

      You mean like a code debugger not in VS Code? I mean… IntelliJ offers pretty amazing built-in debugging functionality. And as a bonus, they’re located in Prague, so you’re supporting a EU company by using IntelliJ.

        No, I meant something like this, but for Linux. Not a command line tool, not some janky wrapper around the command line tool, not another IDE that would force me to abandon my current setup (Kate + Language Servers).

        And no, I don’t care about “scripts”, my usecase (game development) isn’t about creating software with minimal interaction. I also don’t care about Mortal Kombat Fatality-tier key combinations a la Vim.

          I don’t know what to tell you, but a debugger is usually shipped with an IDE. If your IDE doesn’t ship with a debugger then that’s an issue completely independent from any OS that you’re using. When I write C# programs in Visual Studio, I use the Visual Studio debugger. When I write games in Godot, I use the Godot debugger. When I write games in Unreal, I use the Unreal debugger. When I write Web Applications in IntelliJ, I use the IntelliJ Debugger. Your use case just seems extremely strange.

          That being said, I’m sure there is a tool out there that does what you’re looking for. I’m just not sure you should be looking for it.
