Debugging Julia script on SSH connection (no GUI)

[Palli]

There is this keyboard-controlled GitHub - JuliaDebug/Debugger.jl: Julia debugger that should be good enough.

I think it’s actually part of VS Code (at least previously Juno), but then some add-on makes it a GUI version, but I’m not aware of any TUI version or it or any debugger.

There’s also Infiltrator.jl that I found to me nice. And I just noticed brand-new:

GitHub - FedeClaudi/HelpGPT.jl: Let the AI fix your mistakes.

I don’t know how well it works. Since the GPT-4 upgrade to ChatGPT hopefully it works even better for Julia, same as for for other languages; often you can just copy-paste an error message to it in case it generated bad code, and that’s enough to get a fix. Or so they say, for Python if I recall.

There are also many tools that can help with code, e.g. for formatting and linters and:

[ANN] New tools for fixing performance problems in Julia

Many questions on discourse center around performance, and one common category of problems is “type instability” (aka, poor inferrability triggering runtime dispatch). While the @code_typed and similar macros are powerful, they can be somewhat daunting for newcomers and, for some functions, rather verbose and thus a lot to wade through even for experienced Julia developers. We just released Cthulhu 2.8, which we hope may simplify this kind of analysis. Some of you may know Cthulhu as an amazing…
