This works beyond VSCode, and we should mention the code editors that people are using, so that people understand that not confined just to the VSCode product

Can we update and reflect in copy below as well?

Totally fair. I haven't actually tested this in those IDEs, but I assume it'll work given they're VSCode forks

| In 2023 we announced [breakpoint debugging support](https://blog.cloudflare.com/debugging-cloudflare-workers/) for Workers, which meant that you could easily debug your Worker code in Wrangler's built-in devtools (accessible via the `[d]` hotkey) as well as multiple other devtools clients, [including VSCode](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/observability/dev-tools/breakpoints/). For most developers, breakpoint debugging via VSCode is the most natural flow, but until now it's required [manually configuring a `launch.json` file](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/observability/dev-tools/breakpoints/#setup-vs-code-to-use-breakpoints), running `wrangler dev`, and connecting via VSCode's built-in debugger. | ||

| Now, using VSCode's built-in [JavaScript Debug Terminals](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/nodejs/nodejs-debugging#_javascript-debug-terminal), there are just two steps: open a JS debug terminal and run `wrangler dev` (or `vite dev`). VSCode will automatically connect to your running Worker (even if you're running multiple Workers at once!) and start a debugging session. |
