    Debugging functionality for Ruby (by ruby)

    • This series introduce features of ruby/debug: Debugging functionality for Ruby now I'm working on. debug.gem will be introduced into Ruby 3.1 which will be released Dec/2021.

  • Byebug

    Debugging in Ruby 2

    • Maybe byebug (deivid-rodriguez/byebug: Debugging in Ruby 2) is most famous Ruby's debugger in recent years. byebug has enough features, however it doesn't utilize recent added TracePoint features for debuggers, so it is slow when some breakpoint is set.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

    The Ruby Programming Language

    • byebug supports threading. However Ruby 3.0 introduced Ractor (ruby/ractor.md at master · ruby/ruby). Ractor enables to make parallel program in Ruby, but the parallel programming is difficult and it needs support for debugging. However, it is hard to support ractors by existing debuggers.
