# Debugging in Prowler

Debugging in Prowler simplifies the development process, allowing developers to efficiently inspect and resolve unexpected issues during execution.

## Debugging with Visual Studio Code

Visual Studio Code (also referred to as VSCode) provides an integrated debugger for executing and analyzing Prowler code. Refer to the official VSCode debugger [documentation](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging) for detailed instructions.

### Debugging Configuration Example

The following file is an example of a [debugging configuration](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging#_launch-configurations) file for [Virtual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/).

This file must be placed inside the *.vscode* directory and named *launch.json*:

```json theme={null}

    "configurations": [
        {
