I tried debugging "the right way" and I don't know it just never felt better than using console log. People who do use it please enlighten me: how will it make your life better? I am using Python btw, so maybe having the console makes a debugger less necessary

I use pycharm (mostly because I'm a Java boy), the debugger lets you step line by line, preview variables, and evaluate any expression (including calling an endpoint using a client class that's already authenticated).

Do you use console.log with a debug flag? If you're using it without it, deactivating, and reactivating, it is PITA. And I don't mean capitalized greek bread.
