I’m going over the Hikr tutorial and I am wondering how to step into the associated .js files. I’m using VSCode (1.72.2) and Fuse X version 2.7.0 on Windows 11.

When I execute ‘fuse preview . -DDEBUG\_V8’ I get:

Build completed in 5.07 seconds  
DEBUG\_V8: Waiting for a debugger agent to connect on port 5858…  
DEBUG\_V8: Waiting for a debugger agent to connect on port 5858…

But, now how do I connect from within VSCode so that I can place breakpoints in, for example, the App.js code that is part of the tutorial?
