Debugging WordPress Core with VSCode

To facilitate working on WordPress, I wanted to set up both PHP debugging using xDebug and Javascript debugging using Chrome within VSCode for WordPress-Develop.

To facilitate working on WordPress, I wanted to set up both PHP debugging using xDebug and Javascript debugging using Chrome within VSCode for WordPress-Develop.
While working on a recent issue in Gutenberg, I needed to do some javascript debugging. Normally I'd just do this in Chrome using the dev tools, but I decided to see if I could get the VSCode Chrome debugger working to be able to do it directly inside the IDE.
