What debugging options are available for Node.js? Especially in Visual Studio Code

I came from development in ASP.NET MVC / C # using Visual Studio. In this stack, debugging is very thorough and simple. You create a project, code, set breakpoints and press F5 to go through them.

What are my options with Node.js? In particular, using Visual Studio code? I tried setting up a debug configuration file, but it has mixed results and seems to be much more error prone than debugging in C # / Visual Studio. Is there a way to get the debugging features ordered in Node the same way I'm used to in Visual Studio with C #? I know that JS is interpreted, not compiled ...

Update: I tried to press the debug button and configure the launch.json file. However, this usually leads to errors. For example, I set start.json to the entry point to the application, and my application uses the MVC pattern. When I run the application, the debugger stops at the breakpoint before I even get to the controller endpoint, whereas in Visual Studio with C # the debugger will listen, and when I pick up the endpoint, it will stop at the breakpoint so that I can step through. The Visual Studio Code / Node debugger seems to want to go through all the breakpoints before the endpoints are even started. I also tried the Nodejs Tools extension for the Visual Studio 2015 community, which resulted in Microsoft Typescript errors. It just doesn't seem very simple.

Have you tried using Chrome? When in Chrome press F12 to display the developer tools, you have an output console and you can see the source and set breakpoints.
