You are both able to set breakpoints and advance the debug cursor to step through the session.

As you edit you can see your teammate’s cursor, jump to the location of your teammate’s carat, or follow their actions.Ĭollaborative debugging goes further, allowing you and your teammate to independently inspect objects using debugging features like hovers, locals and watches, the stack trace or the debug console. Each of you can open files, navigate, edit code, highlight, or refactor - and changes are instantly reflected. When your teammate edits a file, they get editor enhancements like IntelliSense, statement completion, and suggestions. They can use rich language features to navigate within the code not only just opening other files as text but using semantic analysis-based navigation like Go to Definition or Peek. This means your teammate can read the code you shared without having to clone a repo or install any dependencies your code relies on. When you share a collaborative session, your teammate sees the context of the workspace in their editor.
