With Typescript and Strapi v4.4.3 I just needed to add the “sourceMap”:true to the tsconfig.json file and then I could use the usual (at least for me) launch.json configuration for debugging Strapi:
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"command": "npm run develop",
"name": "Run npm develop",
"request": "launch",
"type": "node-terminal",
"env": {
"DATABASE_SSL": "false",
"NODE_ENV": "development",
}
}
]
}
