It is now possible to debug Chrome web pages in vscode via Chrome remote debugging with a extension released by Microsoft.
Debugger for Chrome
As you can see from that page there are two modes of debugging, Launch and Attach. I only managed to use the Attach mode, probably because i don’t have a server running. This extension has all important debug tools functional: local variables, breakpoints, console, call stack.
Another reason to revisit vscode is that it now has IntelliSense support for ECMAScript 6, which displays methods not visible in other “IntelliSense like” solutions I’ve tried, like SublimeCodeIntel or the latest version of WebStorm.
