Honestly if you're not including the LoC in your debug statement I don't even fucking understand you.
But yeah, senior devs know the power of breadcrumb debugging (because most of us were deeply scarred by
gdb
).That's
console.trace()
for all you JS devs out there.I always combine that with objects with the shorthand notation. So you always know what variable has what value without having to remember in what order you printed the variables.
I also use group and groupend to nicely collapse different logs. and table when i'm feeling funny.
