Node js debugging

Question

I have recently got into Node JS using a Visual Studio project.
VS does syntax check but doesn't give a list of errors and their line numbers as it does in C# and wpf.
This makes debugging tedious.
Node JS just crashing out means the problem could be anywhere.

Answer 1

Problem was down to simple bad programming and also lack of help from VS.
I reported in and now VS gives syntax errors.
This helps a lot but node still crashes out a lot even if no syntax errors.
The trick seems to be incrementally change code and run it to see if what you have done causes a crash.
If you change a lot of code and it crashes the bug could be anywhere !

Answer 2

Hi 69673825,

There appear to be some compatibility issues, we suggest you report it to developer community: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/report?space=8&entry=problem.
