How to debug Teal in VSCode?

[ThisisGame]

Do I need to compile teal into Lua and then use the Lua debugging extension in VSCode?
Thank you for your answer.

No idea how the vscode extension works but that sounds like one way.

Any debugger that puts the debug statements directly in the code probably works out of the box (with a .d.tl file to tell teal what is inside such a library)

Thanks for your answer.
The debugging method of teal is indeed the same as that of lua, and any lua debugger can debug teal.

I successfully debugged in ZeroBrain.

I am able to debug Teal code from VSCode with this extension: https://github.com/tomblind/local-lua-debugger-vscode

You need to add the "scriptFiles": ["${workspaceFolder}/**/*.tl"] settings in your launch.json config file, and the VSCode settings "debug.allowBreakpointsEverywhere": true to allow breakpoints to be respectively "listened to" and placed in Teal files (+ follow instructions in the README).
