I wonder if there are some reasons against more tight integration the debugger into ide in nearest future…for (at the first sight) it seems is not difficult probem to implement the steps you wrote before(plus wrapping currently active script into a temporary function) in the IDE plugin.

Hi,

I am using the new Juno. You seem to say that Revise is not needed anymore. However, I have difficulty setting up breakpoints. Do you still have to use `includet`?

You don’t. You have to make sure you’re on the [right version of Atom.jl though](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-juno-0-8-7/24682) (v0.8.7), which was hard to get yesterday because of some dependency problems with Revise.

Are there any updates on the vscode debugger or is it still not at the same level as Juno yet?

I’m not aware of any progress, but perhaps the VSCode developers will correct me.

I found this post: [Debugging Julia - #22 by davidanthoff](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/debugging-julia/22147/22)  
but don’t know if anyone actually picked it up.
