Prerequisites

• Using npm
• Using an up-to-datemain branch
• Using latest version of devtools.Check the docs for how to update
• Tried solutions mentioned in#400
• For issue in production release, add devtools output ofDEBUG_PROD=true npm run build && npm start

Expected Behavior

When the debugger is invoked, execution is paused at thedebugger; statement.

Current Behavior

Execution is not paused at thedebugger; statement.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Clone the repository

2. Replace src/renderer/main.tsx contents with the following simple script:

debugger;console.log('hi')

3. Launch the application vianpm start

4. Observe the console which sayshi and doesn't stop the execution ondebugger; statement

Possible Solution (Not obligatory)

Im really not sure what is happening here. The fact that application opens with devtools ready and just skips the legitdebugger; statement looks surreal.

Context

Reproducable with a pristine boilerplate where just the renderer entrypoint is replaced with simple confirmation case. Adding debugger; to the default index.tsx would yield the same result - code execution is not paused when application is launched on the said statement and app is running ignoring it.

Your Environment

• Node version : v22
• electron-react-boilerplate version or branch : main branch cloned
