For me, the closest modern successors to the Borland suite are Visual Studio (not VSCode) and the Jetbrains IDEs. The feel like they're the only one with a holistic, batteries included, design that actually focuses on debuggability.

I actually feel that the terminal-based focus of modern FAANG-style development actually hindered proper tool development, but I was never able to explain it to anyone that hasn't used Borland C++ or Borland Pascal in the past, except maybe to game developers on Visual Studio.
