nvim-dap VS nvim-dap-python

There are DAP extensions for both Vim (e.g. https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector) and NeoVim (https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap). I can't speak as to the experience in detail (I think I briefly played with nvim-dap a year or two ago), but I suspect that for most it will be good enough.

Also, you can set up debugger integration with https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap .

You could use nvim-dap with nvim-dap-python.

I'd suggest starting with a Neovim distro that makes things work for you and as you get familiar you can transition to a more custom configuration as you see fit. If you want to do it by yourself then the most popular plugin for debugging in Neovim is nvim-dap and there is also an extension for Python to give you a more ready to go config instead of doing it yourself. You should read the docs of those 2 to see how you should customize accordingly your configuration.

(neovim only) nvim-dap

https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap + https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text should be able to do it, I think?

If you want to debug types in TypeScript, you could use marilari88/twoslash-queries.nvim. If you would like to debug TypeScript/JavaScript code, then you need mfussenegger/nvim-dap, you could read this article: Debugging using DAP to understand how to set up it.

I think nvim-dap doesn't (always?) use neovim current working directory as root, which can cause issues like yours. I'd recommend using https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap-python along with a local .nvim.lua (:h 'exrc') with the following config:

I figured out a solution btw. I got this plugin and created a .vscode/launch.json file for my project and set the cwd in there

lmao. I'm asking this because I'm trying to do this. Just want to know whether this is a good idea. I have some basic setup using nvim-dap-python.

Oh yes.. I think https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap-python is what you are looking for. The configuration might not be as simple as the VS code equivalent but seems to serve the same purpose?

But how do specify the same virtual env for Debugging with dap? nvim-dap-python is looking for the env variables VIRTUAL_ENV and CONDA_PREFIX. But that means i cannot open multiple python projects in the same nvim instance.

Yes, you can use nvim-dap-ui on top of nvim-dap or just nvim-dap-python (note that I haven‘t used the latter). Both options are able to parse .vscode/launch.json debug configs.

Have you installed and configured nvim-dap and nvim-dap-python ?
