pry-byebug
Adds step-by-step debugging and stack navigation capabilities to Pry using Byebug for Ruby applications.
What is pry-byebug?
pry-byebug is a Ruby gem that enhances the Pry REPL with debugging features, allowing developers to step through code execution and navigate the call stack interactively. It integrates Byebug's debugging engine into Pry, making it easier to inspect and debug Ruby programs without changing how they're launched.
Ruby developers using MRI 3.2.0+ who want interactive debugging capabilities within their existing Pry sessions. It's particularly useful for those who need to debug complex code flows without restarting their applications.
Developers choose pry-byebug because it combines Pry's powerful introspection with Byebug's robust execution control in a seamless integration. Unlike alternatives, it works with standard Pry sessions and requires no special launch procedures, making debugging more intuitive and less disruptive to normal workflows.
