Live editing with vscode isn't working

[cesarvarela]

Not sure if this is a bug or a naming confusion, but live editing doesn't seem to be working as it should:

For example, if I hit a breakpoint like this:

and then, if I edit the console.log('ssss ss') statement and save, the execution should go one step back in the call stack and stop there, then hitting F5 would hit the breakpoint again, allowing me to edit the statement again, and so on. This is how it works with the Chrome dev tools, but isn't happening here.

Is it possible to get it to work? If not, then it is not exactly live-editing :D

It won't allow you to live edit code on the fly if that's what you mean. It's just a debugger integration. (At least for now.)

I agree the way the feature was described is confusing. Can you send a PR to remove "live editing" from it?

Appreciate it.
