DrupalEasy Show & Tell: DDEV + Ubuntu + Visual Studio Code debugging with Randy Fay

Join Mike Anello, Randy Fay, and members of the DrupalEasy Learning Community as they debug a student's Ubuntu/DDEV Visual Studio Code/XDebug configuration. This Show & Tell is a tour-de-force of DDEV XDebug debugging and will likely be useful for anyone having issues getting DDEV + XDebug + Visual Studio Code working. During the Show & Tell, Randy stressed the importance of debugging from a known, standard state.

The DrupalEasy Learning Community is made up of current students and alumni of DrupalEasy long-form classes.

This DrupalEasy Show & Tell mentions "Mike's way" of using Visual Studio Code with DDEV - more information about this method is here. Ultimately, the student's issue was three-fold: a local firewall was enabled, the student's Visual Studio Code launch.json file had a bug in it, and (when connecting Visual Studio Code directly to the project container) the need to add the following to the global DDEV ~/.ddev/global_config.yaml file when using Ubuntu: xdebug-ide-location: container
