Documentation on VSCode Setup

[vhscom]

Hi, I'm new to Micronaut and I work in VSCode. Is there any documentation or example projects (including debug config) for setting up a vanilla Micronaut project with support for step debugging for VSCode? I saw the following discussion but it seems to be more project-specific than what I'm looking for: #7474

There is the information in the VS Code Extension page: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=oracle-labs-graalvm.micronaut

Is that what you are looking for?

Thanks, @shingjo. VSCode has a debugger built in. Is it not possible to add a debug configuration for that and begin debugging without an extension? Or is the GraalVM extension you linked to required for debugging Micronaut in VSCode?

Aside: Eventually I'd like to be able to start the remote debugger via CLI without any IDE at all.

I was able to get step debugging and inspection working with Micronaut using VSCode without the GraalVM extension. To do so I ran ./gradlew run --debug-jvm and, from within VS Code, attached a debugger to the port provided on the command line.
