Node.js can be debugged using Chrome Developer Tools since `v6.3.0`. Here's a quick guide on how to do this:
1. Download and install Node.js `v6.3.0` or newer, if you don't already have it installed on your machine.
2. Run node with the `--inspect-brk` flag (e.g. `node --inspect-brk index.js`).
3. Open `about:inspect` in a new tab in Chrome. You should see something like the screenshot below.
4. Click `Open dedicated DevTools for Node` to open a new window connected to your Node.js instance.
5. Use the Developer Tools to debug your Node.js application!
