Pause code with breakpoints

Set a breakpoint so that you can pause your code in the middle of its execution. To learn how to set breakpoints, see Pause Your Code With Breakpoints.

Check values when paused

While the execution is paused, the debugger evaluates all variables, constants, and objects within the current function up to a breakpoint. The debugger shows the current values inline next to the corresponding declarations.

You can use the Console to query the evaluated variables, constants, and objects.
