I've been a Python/Elixir programmer for a long time and I make heavy use of pdb.set_trace()/IEx.pry().

Lately, I've inherited a very messy NodeJS backend and have been pulling my remaining hair out working without proper debugging tools. I've gone back to 'console.log' debugging, but it makes me feel like a caveman.

I can't believe that this whole popular ecosystem doesn't have a proper debugging REPL - can anybody point me in the right direction?
