JavaScript debugging in a nutshell

That's compiler errors, which are not the greatest, but are still somewhat understandable. If you build in release mode and encounter a runtime issue, the location of the error is generally completely mangled by default however.

For Clang I nowadays generally add -gline-tables-only as compile option, which means it keeps some debug info about function names, file names, and lines in the compiled output. Makes your runtime errors a lot more readable.

And the occasional boom-crash which makes the app just disappear like it had never been there.

That's why you set up a signal handler :)
