Debugging Javascript and setting breakpoints using VSCode

[goblinfactory]

Hi all,
Can anyone give me a few pointers of how to debug javascript in a NueJs project?
i.e. when developing locally and running bunx nue, how can i set a breakpoint on a line of javascript code and debug a javascript issue I might have?

Up to now I've just been using NueJs as a super magical clever markdown to static html generator that I can extend, but I need to add a contact us form to my blog, which is using NueJS and I need to write, debug and run some custom javascript that's now gone beyond cnt++.
I appreciate that the focus currently is on other roadmap work, but just asking here what other devs are using for basic breakpoint debugging to run some basic hand cranked javascript (for form handling) in the meantime.
