How to debug node.js react express applications

Vote count: 0

I come from a traditional programming background, meaning that I can put a breakpoint on a section of code, and when that code is executed, the debugger throws me into the code.

When developing these web apps, it seems that the only debugging one can do is "printf" debugging and using a tool like FireFox Developer to inspect web elements.

How do I run the code so that it drops me into a debugger?Right now I am using a text editor, but not real GUI development environment.

Any pointers would be appreciated.
