Description-en: Ruby 2.0 fast debugger - base + CLI
Byebug is a Ruby 2 debugger. It's implemented using the
Ruby 2 TracePoint C API for execution control and the Debug Inspector C API
for call stack navigation. The core component provides support that
front-ends can build on. It provides breakpoint handling and bindings for
stack frames among other things and it comes with an easy to use command
line interface.
