Unless you need a graphical debugger, then vi/vim/nvim/emacs all start to get creaky. That single requirement keeps me on vscode. I'd love a terminal based alternative.





Graphical as in integrated with the normal editing view? There's a new very nicely done one for Emacs: https://github.com/svaante/dape . The documentation about using it is currently a bit terse though.

I actually don't mind if it's not integrated with the editor. I'm fine with a debugger being a standalone application. What I want is the ability to see the source, set breakpoints and navigate the code efficiently inside the debugger. vscode is currently the best option for this remotely

just don't write buggy code ;) (or have to work on anyone else's)
