Software debugging is often considered the most significant challenge in development, impacting project timelines and scalability because its time requirements are unpredictable until the issue is understood. Pulumi offers an enhanced debugging experience for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) by providing breakpoint debugging capabilities within popular Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) like VS Code. This enables developers to set breakpoints and inspect the state of their code during execution, similar to traditional software debugging methods, thus offering a more structured and insightful approach compared to relying on unstructured logs or printf debugging. A detailed walkthrough exemplifies setting up a TypeScript project in Pulumi, configuring VS Code for a robust debugging workflow, and diagnosing an issue by examining variable states at breakpoints. Despite some limitations, such as lack of integration with the Pulumi backend or asynchronous nature of inputs and outputs, the approach significantly enhances the developer experience and can be applied to other languages supported by Pulumi, such as Python, Go, and C#. Pulumi also provides additional tools like logging for aspects not covered by breakpoint debugging.
