I am working on getting the VS Code debugger to attach to Chrome as part of my regular workflow.
I keep Chrome running all the time, and the highly-regarded VS Code Live Server extension opens my project in a new tab, which I like. I would like to be able to attach the VS Code debugger to this instance, but it looks like I have to start Chrome from the command line with
sudo /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --remote-debugging-port=9222
Several questions:
sudo
in the line above? Some sources do not have it.Thanks!
PS I see the related SO question for Windows.
There are various Mac answers that used to work that don't anymore. I found one that does and built a double-clickable icon. I posted it on GitHub.
Apparently it's pretty easy to do using Automator, also.
