Better integration with IDE (vscode...) debugger (launch.json, breakpoints...)
Sébastien Garcia-romeu
I always found debugging expo app was very hard compared to a classic react native app. In particular for debugging. There is so little ressources on the subject, the only post I have found to work is: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57412994/cant-debug-expo-project-on-vscode
I was VERY happy with that setup (I had to do every steps exactly and it was a hell to setup in the first place) until this was outdated with newer version of expo (probably because the new expo client app doesn't have the "allow remote JS debugging" option?)
So it would be a great evolution that we can have a clear and documented way to debug an expo app as simple as a react app:
* A working launch.json setup
* The project is starting when pressing F5 and we can put breakpoints all over the code while it runs

Have you tried using React Native debugger or Flipper?

Ansh Nanda: Using React Native debugger was the closest I could get to a real debugging environment. But didn't manage to get it properly integrated to my IDE although I passed hours on it

This would be huge for those who use Expo professionally.
