I prefer to do all my development in Visual Studio Code these days. I know KodeStudio is a fork of Code, but it disables a bunch of things I'd rather it not. Thankfully, I just discovered how to easily debug my projects within Visual Studio Code (I used to just debug in the browser), and figured I'd share in case anyone here is in the same boat.

Here's how I got things working:

1. Install the Debugger for Chrome extension
2. In your project root, create (or edit) the two files: .vscode/launch.json and .vscode/tasks.json according to this gist: https://gist.github.com/FuzzyWuzzie/89a620b4adda01452cba0314e4c02c98
3. Make sure to enable debug (sourcemaps) in your khafile.js: project.addParameter('-debug');
4. Click the debug tab, select the 'Kha/HTML5' configuration, and launch!

You can set breakpoints, inspect variables, etc.

Hope that helps!

Is there anything but the extensions ui which is not working in Kode for you? Because that would likely be an accident.

@Robert Not that I'm aware of; I didn't stick around with KodeStudio long enough to find anything when I realized I couldn't use extensions.

Extension downloads were not working in open source vscode builds for me last time I tried, that's why I deactivated the ui for that - but you can use them by manually putting them in the extension dir.
